Experiments and observations on electricity
57. Lightning is Electrical
Franklin began his experiments on electricity in the 1740s and communicated
his results to correspondents in Great Britain. In 1751, these various
letters were compiled into this book. The letters described Franklin's work
on lighting strikes and lightning rods, and also discussed his positive &
negative theory of electrical fluid.
