HANDYBOOKS FOR HANDICRAFTS. BY PAUL N. HASLUCK. Crown 8vo, 144 pages, ONE SHILLING each. These HANDYBOOKS have been written to supply information for WORKMEN, STUDENTS and AMATEURS in the several Handicrafts, on the actual PRACTICE of the WORKSHOP, and are intended to convey in plain language TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE OF the several CRAFTS. In describing the processes employed, and the manipulation of material, workshop terms are used; workshop practice is fully explained; and the text is freely illustrated with drawings of modern tools, appliances and processes. The information given will thus be found useful, not only by the young beginner, but by the veteran whose range of experience has been narrowed under a system of divided labour; while the amateur will find himself introduced to the very atmosphere and surroundings of the workshop.
