Adventures of a Man of Science
by Clifford Halifax, L. T. Meade
About this book
"We have taken down these stories from time to time as our friend. Paul Gilchrist, has related them to us. He is a man whose life study has been science in its most interesting forms—he is also a keen observer of human nature and a noted traveler. He has an unbounded sympathy for his kind, and it has been his lot to be consulted on many occasions by all sorts and conditions of men." - Meade & Halifax Theses eight short stories were originally published in multiple issues of the Strand Magazine V12 (1896) and V13 (1897). - Summary by knotyouraveragejo
