Abstract
THE author states that the work is “primarily designed” for the use of students preparing for the advanced stage of the examinations of the Science and Art Department. This, the first volume, contains 250 pages, of which 150 are devoted to iron and steel. And it may be observed that as there is an excellent treatise on the Metallurgy of Iron, by Bauermann, in Weale's Series, this part is less needed by students than the second, in which the metallurgy of copper, lead, zinc, silver, gold, mercury, nickel, cobalt and aluminium, will be described.
