Sinopsis
This book introduces physics to beginning students in a simple and understandable way. Composed of 39 lessons, it begins by explaining the attraction of bodies to the Earth and proceeds to explore concepts such as specific gravity, magnetism, electricity, elasticity, and the pressure of air. The author uses readily available materials for experiments, and explains the relationship between the concepts in a manner that is easy to follow. The author was motivated to write the book by the belief that science is of paramount importance in children's education.

Excerpt from First Lessons in Physics
Inasmuch as the demand of a large amount of time might delay the introduction of physical science into the Common School, the book has been so 'prepared as to secure good results in the minimum of time ever given any study in our schools, viz.: one lesson a week.
Each of the thirty-nine lessons commences with a fact familiar to the child, or an easy little experiment, which serves as the basis for the development of a natural law.

Excerpt from First Lessons in Physics
The conviction that an elementary knowledge of some important instruments, machines and physical phenomena can and should be given in our Common Schools, has induced the author to prepare the present little volume. Its object is the presentation of a number of phenomena, laws, and applications of the same, specially adapted to the perceptive capacities of the pupils of the upper grades.
Inasmuch as the demand of a large amount of time might delay the introduction of physical science into the Common School, the book has been so prepared as to secure good results in the minimum of time ever given any study in our schools, viz.: one lesson a week.
Each of the thirty-nine lessons commences with a fact familiar to the child, or an easy little experiment, which serves as the basis for the development of a natural law. After this law, comes the application man makes of it - such as the barometer, thermometer, pump and hydrostatic press.
Costly apparatus is unnecessary.
