I downloaded this from gutenberg.org as an e-pub, with images. It is only 34 pages long, but very clearly written to explain the reasoning behind the experiment, the equipment used and the methodology. This research was published in 1880, and some of the equipment used could easily be duplicated or done much more precisely by high school physics students with devices they could build themselves today.This is a fascinating historical document worthy of reading by those interested in history, science, any of a number of areas.
