Book Description

Excerpt from Chapters on Papermaking, Vol. 3: Comprising a Short Practical Treatise in Which Boiling, Bleaching, Loading, Colouring, and Similar, Questions Are Discussed The work cannot for the most part lay claim to literary merit, as to edit, alter, or otherwise render into better English many of the comments herein chronicled at great labour and trouble by the horny hand of toil, would be to rob the work of a great deal of its interest and utility, as well as possibly to misinterpret the intended meanings of many of the writers. Furthermore, the most expressive way of describing most paper making processes is not always capable of being rendered into' good English, and the majority of those who are more or less familiar with such matters would prefer to see them described in the ordinary language of the paper mill.
