Description
Excerpt from Explosives, Vol. 1: History and Manufacture; With 77 Illustrations
Since the late Mr. Oscar Guttmann published his work on the Manufacture of Explosives in 1895 no comprehensive book on this subject has appeared in English. In the interval the explosives industry has undergone many changes every branch of it has developed enormously - even that of black powder; and scientific investigations have thrown light on many of the problems that arise in the manufacture and use of explosives. Especially during the last few years many obscure points have been cleared up. It is hoped therefore that the present work will be found to supply a real want.
