Excerpt from The Glass Sands of Kentucky: A Detailed Report Covering the Examination, Analysis and Industrial Evaluation of the Principal Glass Sand Deposits of the State

Dear Sir:

Permit me to transmit herewith my manuscript and illustrations of a report on the Glass Sands of Kentucky.

The field work for the preparation of this report was done during the present summer. The time at my disposal for this work has proven inadequate to cover the entire State. The most promising counties have been visited and their glass sand possibilities will be found described herein. As all the counties within the State have not been visited the report must be considered as one of progress, rather than a complete report upon all the glass sand possibilities of Kentucky.

It is hoped that the report will contribute somewhat to the literature of the country on the glass industry and prove of service not only to the people of the State of Kentucky, but also to prospective manufacturers everywhere who may be interested in the commercial development of glass sand deposits in this State.
