Storer and Lindsay's Elementary Manual 



of Chemistry. By F. H. Storer, S.B.,A.M., 

 and W. B. Lindsay, A.B.,B.S. Cloth, i2mo, 453 

 pages. Illustrated. $1.20. 



This work is the lineal descendant of the " Manual of 

 Inorganic Chemistry" of Eliot and Storer, and the " Ele- 

 mentary Manual of Chemistry " of Eliot, Storer and Nichols. 

 It is in fact the last named book thoroughly revised, 

 rewritten and enlarged to represent the present condition 

 of chemical knowledge and to meet the demands of American 

 teachers for a class book on Chemistry, at once scientific 

 in statement and clear in method. 



The purpose of the book is to facilitate the study and 

 teaching of Chemistry by the experimental and inductive 

 method. It presents the leading facts and theories of the 

 science in such simple and concise manner that they can 

 be readily understood and applied by the student. The 

 book is equally valuable in the classroom and the laboratory. 

 The instructor will find in it the essentials of chemical 

 science developed in easy and appropriate sequence, its 

 facts and generalizations expressed accurately and scientifi- 

 cally as well as clearly, forcibly and elegantly. 



"It is safe to say that no text-book 

 has exerted so wide an influence 

 on the study of chemistry in this 

 country as this work, originally 

 written by Eliot and Storer. Its 

 distinguished authors were leadei.' 

 in teaching Chemistry as a mean.- 

 of mental training in general edu- 

 cation, and in organizing and per- 

 fecting a system of instructing 

 students in large classes by the 

 experimental method. As revised 

 and improved by Professor Nichols, 

 it continued to give the highest 

 satisfaction in our best schools and 

 colleges. After the death of Pro- 

 fessor Nichols, when it became 



necessary to revise the work again, 

 Professor Lindsay, of Dickinson 

 College, w.as selected to assist Dr. 

 Storer in the work. The present 

 edition has been entirely rewritten 

 by them, following throughout the 

 same plan and arrangement of the 

 previous editions, which have been 

 so highly approved by a generation 

 of scholars and teachers. 



" If a book, like an individual, 

 has a histor)', certainly the record 

 of this one, covering a period of 

 nearly thirty years, is of the highest 

 and most honorable character."
