Excerpt from Fifty Years of Iron and Steel
The Fourth Edition of this work, issued in 1919, was expected to satisfy the demand for it. This has not been the case, and a Fifth Edition appeared necessary.
It is gratifying to find that during the time which the Fourth Edition has been in the hands of its readers, largely persons interested in and familiar with the subject, they have offered no suggestions requiring any changes in the text. This Fifth Edition is, therefore, practically a reprint of the Fourth Edition. It will be limited to 200 copies and will be distributed principally among libraries and persons who have asked for a copy of the book.
