If you have ever wondered how to make things at home, from soap to perfume to alcohol to one heck of a lot of other things, this is your book.
It has over 130 pages of what used to pass as common knowledge, useful in every household.
If you want to know how much you have been dumbed down, know that this book was a common reference book in 1872.
Sold on it's appeal to the average user.
If you find terms you are not familiar with, look in the front of Granddad's Wonderful Book of Chemistry by Kurt Saxon, he included a glossary that translate the old terms into the new.
Have a perfectly peaceful day.
Keep working, stop paying. No war, but the class war!!
