Description

280pp VG/none Original editorial blue cloth, red lettering on front board, gilt lettering on spine, negligible dent on the board, owner inscription (“Thorne Baker. Feb’09”) on pastedown, overall in VG+ conditions. A nice copy of this classic work on dynamo design with many formulas and practical examples, fully illustrated by diagrams and b/w pictures. This is the original 1908 first edition and not a modern reprint, with an interesting provenance: Thomas Thorne Baker was an English researcher and inventor in the early XX century with interests varying from chemistry to photography and electricity. He pioneered the electrical transmission of photographs, anticipating the facsimile machine.
