Abstract

THE address which Prof. Roberts-Austen delivered at the Toronto meeting of the British Association last year, and afterwards repeated at the Imperial Institute, was so well received on each occasion that there must be many who will welcome its appearance in book form. The main object of the address was to indicate the nature and distribution of Canada's mineral wealth; but, to lend additional interest to the subject, and afford a base for experimental illustration, a specific metal— nickel—which is especially Canada's own, was given the most prominent place in the discourse.

Canada's Metals.

By Prof. Roberts-Austen Pp. 46. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd.; 1898.)
