1st Edition. 8vo. pp. xix, [1], 329. with half-title. 60 'plates' (incl. frontis.). text illus. tables (1 folding). A fine copy in original cloth. Presentation Inscription from the author to his friend, C.H.Desch, at the time professor of metallurgy at Sheffield. ownership entry of American industrial metallurgist and academic, Cyril Stanley Smith. First Edition. Hadfield emphasizes the labourious researches conducted by Faraday concerning the preparation and properties of alloys of steel during the years 1819-24 which were generally overlooked because his work in the field was far in advance of the practical capabilities of the day. "In the light of his own fifty years of metallurgical experience, largely concerned with alloy steels during the whole of that period, the author claims that the results of the research presented in this book definitely established that Faraday was the first to engage in systematic research concerning the preparation of alloys of steel. Also, regarding the matter broadly and without consideration of immediate practical applications, Faraday may justly be called the pioneer of alloy steels. The complete examination of the surviving specimens of his alloys, which has now been made for the first time, shows that they anticipated in a remarkable manner the facts and principles on which the present enormous development of alloy steels is basedIt is questionable whether there has ever before been an opportunity of examining in the light of modern knowledge a number of century-old specimens in any way comparable in interest and importance with Faraday's "steel and alloys." (Preface) Hadfield joined his father's Sheffield steel manufacturing firm, a pioneer of steel casting in Britain and did important research and commercial development of manganese steel and silicon alloys, and the production of armour-piercing and heat-resisting steels.…

Each of the six letters is 1p, 4to. In good condition, on lightly aged and worn paper. With the Society's stamps and annotations. On topics including the printed version of a paper given by Hadfield and the offer to the society of a paper by his friend 'Mr E. P. Reynolds of Bournemouth' (whose father 'Mr E. Reynolds [] was the mainspring of the Engineering side of Messrs Vickers, Sheffield'). On 30 November 1915 he writes, regarding 'Dr Dugald Clerk's recent excellent Address as Chairman', that he 'wrote Sir Philip Magnus on this same subject in reference to a letter he contributed to "The Times" [] I think this country has done "more than its share" in the science of Metallurgy. Our leading men of science have been kind enough to say that the first great development in steel alloys sprang from my paper "Manganese steel" to the Institute of Civil Engineers in 1888, and the great French scientist, Monsieur Floris Osmond, a person friend of the late Sir William Roberts-Austen, made the remarks given in the enclosed statement P.5694, [not present] which also includes the remarks of several other distinguished men regarding my research work, yet I am certainly not a German.' Also present is a compliments slip with typed note by Hadfield, and a typed copy of a note from Hadfield to Wood.…
