First published in 1963. Humphry Davy, knighted by the Prince
Regent in 1812 for his contributions to science, and later created
baronet for his invention of the miners' safety lamp, was among the
foremost European chemists in the early nineteenth century. Anne
Treneer tells in full the story of Humphry Davy's life. From
letters, journals and memoirs of the time, Davy and his
contemporaries come to life. This title will be of great interest
to scientists and historians.
