Narrative

"Simon Henry Gage was one of the most remarkable, influential, and important
figures in the history of American microscopy. Every serious user of the
microscope will, sooner or later, become familiar with him either through one of
the approximately 200 publications in his bibliography, or, more likely, from
possession of one or more of the seventeen editions of his book, The
Microscope, that was continuously available for some 60 years."
