Sinopsis
Excerpt from Materials of Engineering, Vol. 3
The chapters on the reduction of the ores of the metals are substantially as complete as in the unabridged work; those treating of the properties and uses of those metals are but slightly condensed and the portion of the treatise relat ing to the alloys retains the more essential facts. In the con densation of the matter found in the original, the effort has been made to select for excision, mainly, the parts which give at great length the details of the less important proc esses, and the less essential data obtained by experiment; while the general, and the average, results are retained, as being essential information for the designing engineer.

Excerpt from Materials of Engineering, Vol. 3
1. The knowledge of metals possessed by the early races of mankind was of the most inexact and unsatisfactory character. They were probably led to seek a method of utilizing them, first, by the demands of their fighting classes. Their structures, there implements of agriculture and war, and their domestic utensils were, in the earliest stages of their race-history, of wood, bone and stone. All races are found to have advanced to their present condition of civilization from a primitive state of barbarism, in which they were entirely ignorant of the use of metals, and knew nothing of even the simplest processes of reduction.
The weapons of mankind, in prehistoric times, were at first made of hard wood, of bone, or of stone, fashioned with long and patient labor into rude and inefficient forms. As the race advanced in knowledge and intelligence, they acquired, by some fortunate circumstance, a knowledge of the methods of reducing from the ores the more easily deoxidized metals, and, still later, those which cling with tenacity to oxygen, and require considerable knowledge and skill, and special apparatus for their reduction to the metallic state; and at a still very easy period, they applied the more common and more generally useful metals in their rude manufacturers.
