How was a billiards table lit in 1763, or the stage of the Red Bull playhouse in 1673? How did the early U.S. settlers light their homes, and how did this compare with the homes of Sumeria 4500 years ago. The answers to all these questions and many more are to be found in The Social History of Lighting (originally published in 1958).
