> Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments

This book is an absolute classic. I've got a hardback copy from my childhood and doing the experiments as a kid was magical. Nowadays most other chem experiment books are watered down because the old stuff could be quite hazardous and getting some of the reagents is a lot harder without a parent who can order from Sigma Aldrich.

I've got a decent number of scars and even some chemically induced skin discoloration from those days. The book itself is quite valuable now.
