Synopsis
Excerpt from The Manufacture of Earth Colours
Originally issued as a volume of the series on pigments and colouring matters by the present author's father, the necessity for a new edition afforded a welcome Opportunity of revising Earl/ Colours. Although, in the nature of things, little progress has been made in this subject itself, there was a good deal to add in connection with the mechanical appliances for treating the colour earths and manufacturing them into pigments. In other respects, too, the work has been carefully gone through and brought up to date, with new and additional illustrations.
