Excerpt from The Manufacture of Steel

The manufacture of steel is unnecessarily shrouded in mystery, which has been the cause of its being not more generally in application than it is at the present time. Steel is a superior metal for most purposes where metals are used, and its manufacture cannot be too much cultivated. A principal obstacle to its more general introduction is its high price; to effect a reduction in which, has been the aim of the author of this work.

We compare favourably in most branches of manufacture, and indeed eclipse other nations, except in the manufacture of steel. Yet we have materials in abundance, and of excellent quality for the purpose; and it needs but proper application to ensure success.
