Excerpt from Quartz Operator's Hand Book
In the preparation of this Hand Book, the object has been to make it a reliable and practical guide to the Quartz Operator.
No pains have been spared in gathering the material and in rendering the subjects discussed as concise and plain as their nature would admit.
Mindful that science and practice go hand in hand, the authors have confined their investigations to useful and established facts, leaving untouched all that is doubtful and chimerical.
No claim is made to originality, unless it may be in regard to the discussion of the tractory and the grinding effects of differently formed plates - a subject of great importance to every quartz miner.
To what extent the authors have succeeded in their object, is submitted with no little diffidence to the decision of the public.
