Abstract
THIS book contains brief accounts of those parts of chemistry which are involved in laundering processes, with a short introduction to elementary chemistry. Much of the information is otherwise obtainable only in large treatises or dictionaries, and it is undoubtedly useful and convenient to have it collected in a small manual of this kind. The information is accurate and up-to-date. The book is well printed, and should prove useful to students and those engaged in laundering. The author has evidently an excellent practical knowledge of the subject.
