Excerpt from The Goldsmith's Handbook, Containing Full Instructions for the Alloying and Working of Gold: Including the Art of Alloying, Melting, Reducing, Colouring, Collecting and Refining; The Processes of Manipulation, Recovery of Waste, Chemical and Physical Properties of Gold; With a New System of Mixing Its Alloys

The Author has endeavoured to avoid, as much as possible, technical expressions; having regard all through to the main object of this little volume, namely, the benefit of that class of practical gold workers who take an interest in the daily business of their life, to which, perhaps, chance or choice has called them; but who unfortunately may be unable to improve their position, from the want of a higher and more comprehensive knowledge of their calling. He has, therefore, tried to make the matter plain and intelligible to all who may give it their attention. Especially does he desire that such of his fellow workmen who are steadily devoting their energies to this art, in any of its several branches, may through this instrumentality acquire a knowledge of facts, and a set of useful rules with which they have, perhaps, hitherto been unacquainted.
