" This excellent treatise, . . . one of the BEST and MOST COMPLETE 

 manuals hitherto published on Electro-Metallurgy." Electrical Review. 



"Well brought up to date, including descriptions such as that of 

 Elmore's recent process for the manufacture of seamless copper tubes of 

 extraordinary strength and tenacity by electro-deposition of the pure 

 metal. . . . Illustrated by well-executed and effective engravings." 

 Journal of Soc. of Che.m. Industry.

"Any metallurgical process which REDUCES the COST of production 

 must of necessity prove of great commercial importance. . . . We 

 recommend this manual to ALL who are interested in the PRACTICAL 

 APPLICATION of electrolytic processes." Nature.
