The textile fibres of commerce


Play all audios:

ABSTRACT THE title of this work raised a hope that the author had seized the opportunity open to any specialist of carrying on the critical labours of Vetillart, Wiesnet, Hugo Müller, J.


Christie, Otto Witt, and the experts of the Colonial and Indian Exhibition, now almost of ancient history. The opportunity is a great one; for the subject-matter is vast, the interests


involved are stupendous, while the first principles of the subject are few, very few, and so are they who recognise them. The opportunity is one, not merely for a book enunciating in one


comprehensive view the relationships of our highly developed textile methods to one another and to the properties of the ultimate spinning units, but for a definite forecast of the


progressive future, which is of obvious commercial moment. The Textile Fibres of Commerce. By William S. Hannan. Pp. x + 236. (London: Charles Griffin and Co., Ltd., 1902.) Price 9_s_. net.
