This book helps to fill a gap in the history of 19th century science education in America. Among other things, it shows that Union's new scientific program of 1828 set the pattern which became common by the Civil War. Union's collection of early science books and apparatus, dating from 1795, is described with many illustrations relating to the development of physics and physics teaching.
