Abstract

THIS book consists of a series of biographical sketches of men whose claim to remembrance is mainly based on their connection with the development of the great chemical industry of Lancashire and the North, viz., the manufacture of alkali and of the other chemical products which are directly associated with that industry. These sketches originally appeared in the Chemical Trade Journal, and Mr. Allen has done wisely in putting them together and republishing them in book-form, and thereby rendering them more readily accessible to all who are interested n the personal history of technology. Some Founders of the Chemical Industry: Men to be remembered. By T. Fenwick Allen. Pp. xxiii + 289. (Manchester and London: Sherratt and Hughes, 1906.) Price 5s. net.
