A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Lectures, the first four of which I de Hvered at the Royal Institution last year (1881), I am quite aware that what was spoken extemporaneously, and intended originally only to be heard in a genial atmosphere, must lose some of its effect when read in cold blood.
