This book, written by an anonymous author of the period, explains the chemical analysis of ferrous metals used to make iron and steel, a burgeoning industry at the time. The book was written decades ago and reflects the state of scientific knowledge from that time period. It begins with a basic overview of microscopy, and specimen preparation. It provides an overview of the field of metallography, a subfield of materials science, discussing the essential concepts and techniques. It outlines the procedures for sampling ferrous metals to ensure that the sample for chemical analysis is representative of the material as a whole, a key consideration for the accuracy of chemical analysis. It details how to avoid sampling errors and how to use metallography to evaluate the homogeneity of samples. The book goes into great detail on chemical analysis, which involves determining the amounts of various elements present in a sample of material. The book also includes a chapter on the metallographic characteristics of the constituents occurring in iron and steel. The author provides numerous photomicrographs of metal samples to illustrate the text. The book includes a section on the causes of local differences in the chemical composition of iron and steel, an issue of great interest in the iron and steel industry of the time. The book concludes with information on taking samples for analysis that could be used in the field or in the factory.
