Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Chemistry of Commerce: A Simple Interpretation of Some New, Chemistry in Its Relation to Modern Industry
In view of these difficulties of the art of interpre tation, the writer of this book cannot pretend to have succeeded completely; with a knowledge of the diffi culties of the art, he has incidentally proved the corol lary of his own limitations. But he has done his best; and he has tried because through another book he has written he has received words of appreciation so sin cere, and from sources so far apart in station and in location - from mining engineers in South Africa to school-teachers in China and from captains of the navy to captains of industry - that it has been borne in upon him that, failing other voices, it is his to practice, as a part of the day's work, the humble and difficult art of singing the deeds of other men.
