Excerpt from Electro-Deposition: A Practical Treatise on the Electrolysis of Gold, Silver, Copper, Nickel, and Other Metals, and Alloys; With Descriptions of Voltaic Batteries, Magneto and Dynamo-Electric Machines, Thermopiles, and of the Materials and Process Used in Every Department Of

In contemplating the present work, the Author's desire was to furnish those who are engaged in the Electro-Deposition of Metals, and in the equally important department of Applied Science Electro-Metallurgy, with a comprehensive treatise, embodying all the practical processes and improvements which the progress of Science has, up to the present time, placed at our command.

While the long-continued success of the Author's former work upon this subject, "Electro-Metallurgy Practically Treated" - now passing through its Eighth Edition - testifies to its having filled a useful place in technical literature, the art of which it. treats has during recent years attained such a high degree of development, that it was felt that a more extended and complete work was needed to represent the present advanced state of this important industry.

In carrying out this project, the Author's aim has been to treat the more scientific portion of the work in such a manner that those who are not deeply learned in Science may readily comprehend the chemical and electrical principles of Electrolysis, the knowledge of which is essential to those who would practise the art of Electro-Deposition with economy and success.
