Antiquarian book on science and technology: "The Book of Wonders", 1915

Description: The Book of Wonders, Rudolph J Bodmer, editor, Presbrey Syndicate, Inc., publishers, 1915. The subtitle says “Gives plain and simple answers to the thousands of everyday questions that are asked and which all should be able to, but cannot answer”. Also “Fully illustrated with hundreds of educational pictures which stimulate the mind and give a bird’s eye view of the Wonders of Nature and the Wonders Produced by Man”. Prodigiously illustrated with photographs. 603 pages. Fascinating look at industry and technology in the early years of the 20th Century. Very good condition with attractive cover art. There was a follow-up "Second Book of Wonders" published in 1922. See my eBay listing item #305883540189.
