Description
Whether through medical encyclopedias, daily-use almanacs, or novels and anecdotes, readers pursued knowledge of the natural world with curiosity shaped as much by wonder as by empiricism. Andrew Schonebaum reveals that for many readers, stories were an important source of reliable information about the world.
