Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Guide to the Microscopical Examination of Drinking Water: With an Appendix the of Examination of Air
The author of this work cannot say with many, that the demand for the first edition has been so great as to call speedily for a second. It has, notwithstanding, enjoyed a steady sale; and if slow it is only what might be expected, when the special nature of the subject is taken into account with the little progress science had made in relation to it when the book was first published.
