Excerpt from The Destruction of Daylight: A Study in the Smoke Problem

The book was ready for the printer before the claims of Coalite were brought before the public. It receives such mention as is at present safe, and we can only earnestly hope that it may work the revolution anticipated.

These pages will be found to contain frequent references to Ruskin's works. But this is appropriate, seeing that they have been written at the request, and under the auspices, of the Guild of S. George, founded by Ruskin, as readers of Fore know, in 1871.
