Michael Faraday, an English experimental physicist, was the son of a poor
blacksmith. After very little schooling he was apprenticed to a bookbinder. The
boy worked hard all day and studied at night. One day a man a entering the shop
found a boy at work binding an encyclopedia, and at the same time studying hard
at the article on electricity in it.
The man was surprised to see the boy so interested in a very difficult
subject and questioned him. He found out that Faraday, working late at night, had
already been making experiments of his own, though he was too poor to possess
anything but a home-made battery! When a man gave him four tickets for the
lectures which Sir Humphry Davy was then delivering at the Royal Institute, the
boy was as much delighted as if someone had given him a fortune. He went to the
lectures and made notes of what he heard. At the end of the lectures, he sent his
notes to the great scientist and asked him for work. Later, Davy made him his
assistant. This began his scientific career.
