Excerpt from The Romance of Modern Manufacture: A Popular Account of the Marvels of Manufacturing Those of us who have grown up with the results of Modem Manufacture around us are apt to miss the romance of the subject. Indeed, it is diiScult for us to realize how very different were the conditions in which our great-grandfathers, and even our grandfathers, lived and worked. In the present volume the author has endeavoured to trace the evolution of the different industries, and to describe in everyday language the methods of modem manufacture in our principal industries. In order to keep the book as readable as possible, he has omitted many names and dates, but sufficient detail is given to enable the general reader to form a clear conception of the different subjects. The author is indebted to Mr. Andrew A. Muir, of Glasgow, for drawing the diagrams which appear in the text, and for reading over the manuscript. The author is indebted also to the following firms for permission to inspect their works, and to the principals or managers named for kindly reading over the proof-sheets of the chapters relating to their particular industry: Bryant and May, Ltd., McVitie and Price, London; J.and P.
