Sobre este artículo

The letter basically suggests that the use of wire "lightning rods", affixed to the masts, would collect the energy of the lightning strike and carry it away without causing damage to the masts.

The item is a First Edition, extracted and disbound from The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, Vol. 52, For the Years 1761 & 1762, pages 629-635. This volume was published in 1763.

The illustration accompanying this description shows the first page of the article.

William Watson, FRS (3 April 1715 – 10 May 1787) was an English physician and scientist who was born and died in London. His early work was in botany, and he helped to introduce the work of Carolus Linnaeus into England. He became a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1741 and vice president in 1772. [Wikipedia]
