HARE, ROBERT. Essays Chemical, Electrical, & Galvanic. [Philadelphia: R. Wright, 1825]. 1st ed. 8vo. 48 pp. Sewn as issued, uncut. Foxed. $100.00

Rink 723. Shoemaker 20812. Very scarce, but lacking the five plates, although in this format it's hard to see where they were included. Most knowledgeable concerning electricity, Hare wrote widely and often was controversial. Late in life he became convinced of a spiritual connection, and was shunned by his old colleagues.
