Historical Papers on Modern Explosives

Abstract

ACCESS to the literature of the early part and middle of the last century in connection with a subject which has become a great industry in modern times is possible, as a general rule, only to a limited number of those whose lot it is to conduct and extend that industry, and no such literature can prove of greater interest to those specially concerned with its modern development, or the large number of men of science outside its particular sphere, than that of explosives.

By George W. MacDonald. With an introduction by Sir Andrew Noble Bart., K.C.B, F.R.S. Pp. xi + 192. (London: Whittaker and Co., 1912.) Price 7s. 6d. net.
