The Fairy-Land of Science

The Fairy-Land of Science, by author Arabella B. Buckley, is a somewhat bold promise, seeing that most readers probably look upon science as a bundle of dry facts, while fairy-land is all that is beautiful, and full of poetry and imagination. The author thoroughly believes, and hopes to prove to you, that science is full of beautiful pictures, of real poetry, and of wonder-working fairies; and more, promises you they shall be true fairies, whom you will love just as much when you are old and grayheaded as when you are young; for you will be able to call them up whenever you wander by land or by sea, through meadow or through wood, through water or through air; and though they themselves will always remain invisible, you will see their wonderful poet at work everywhere around you.
