Produktbeschreibung

Jacob's Rod is a book translated from the French language, originally published in 1693, that explores the art of finding springs, mines, and minerals. The book is a rare and curious work that was translated into English by Thomas Welton in 1870. The author of the original French text is unknown. The book delves into the use of divining rods, also known as dowsing rods or Jacob's rods, as a method of locating underground resources. The use of these rods has been a controversial topic throughout history, with some believing in their effectiveness and others dismissing them as mere superstition. The book provides a detailed explanation of how to use the rods and interpret their movements, as well as a discussion of the science behind their supposed effectiveness. Overall, Jacob's Rod is a fascinating insight into the history of divining and the search for valuable resources hidden beneath the earth's surface.By Means Of The Hazel Rod.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
