Excerpt from Practical Text Book of Lithography: A Modern Treatise on the Art of Printing From StoneIn ofiering this book to the lithographic workers the writer believes that he is benefiting the art. He makes no pretense of originality, because the process was dis covered and perfected before he was born, but there has always been a demand for a concise, clear and practical text book to which the worker could turn when a question arose as to the best mode of procedure.
