Reseña del editor

Originally published in 1871, this early Manual of Mining Tools is extensively illustrated with 285 wood engravings of mining tools, drawn to scale. PREFACE: One of the striking features of the art of mining , in its wide application, is the variety which characterizes the tools used for prosecuting it. The subject in general is one of interest and importance to those who aim at promoting the prosperity of mining.....Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
