Excerpt from Materials of Engineering, Vol. 3
The chapters on the reduction of the ores of the metals are substantially as complete as in the unabridged work; those treating of the properties and uses of those metals are but slightly condensed and the portion of the treatise relat ing to the alloys retains the more essential facts. In the con densation of the matter found in the original, the effort has been made to select for excision, mainly, the parts which give at great length the details of the less important proc esses, and the less essential data obtained by experiment; while the general, and the average, results are retained, as being essential information for the designing engineer.
In the text, Materials of Engineering, refers to the larger work.fir Tu.
