Water Supply: the Present Practice of Sinking and Boring Wells: With Geological Considerations and Examples of Wells Executed
Spon, Ernest
Boring; Water-supply; Wells
Pyrology, or Fire Chemistry; a Science interesting to the
general Philosopher, and an art of infinite importance to
the Chemist, Mineralogist, Metallurgist, Geologist,
Agriculturalist, Engineer (Mining, Civil, and Military),
etc., etc., by William Alexander Ross, lately a Major in
the Royal Artillery, _with plates and woodcuts_, crown
4to, cloth £1 16 0
"A work which we have no hesitation in pronouncing original and
invaluable. The author is not a chemist trained in the orthodox school
outside which there is no salvation: for cooked results and unproved
theories he shows very little respect. We can strongly recommend
this book to ANALYSTS, ASSAYERS, MINERALOGISTS, and to all persons
interested in MINING AND METALLURGY."--_Chemical News_, August 6th,
1875.
