Excerpt from Hand Book of Timber Preservation
In a general way, the book is an epitome of the experience and observations of the author, assisted by Robert D. Rowe, recently deceased, giving results of much labor, study and time.
It is not pretended that the operator can take the matter up from the book and proceed at once to run the business, as there is too much that calls for a trained and matured judgment; but the book will be of much service as a handbook and guide during the operation of the plant as well as to hints during the construction.
The author is but too sensible of the imperfect arrangement of the work and that much is yet to do to make it complete, but trusts to be able to offer in the near future an edition that will correct, to some extent, the imperfections of this.
