THE GOLDMAKERS 10,000 Years of Alchemy
Language: English
Published by Nicholson & Watson, London and Brussels, 1948
Seller: Douglas Books, Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Good+. No Jacket. 1st ed. 301 pp. (prelims in Roman), 24 text ills; internally clean, tight and unmarked bar innocuous small (15 mm) round stamp of the Birmingham Assay Office Library bottom front endpaper, covers generally clean and minimally worn bar a slight crease lin. Yellow cloth acorss bottom front outer corner, spine a little dull with central vertical ridge. Appears to have been issued with various coloured cloth covers. Undivided into chapters the contents comprise a series of short essays, chronologically arranged on individual alchemists and gold-making episodes from antiquity ('The Golden Calf' gets a page) to the Polish enginer Dunikovski's 1930s efforts using 'Z-rays' in the 1930s. Apparently quite uncommon this is a very useful reference work with 62 (I make it) entries.
