"This clearly written and well organized book is called the first textbook of general chemistry written in the English language to be based on Lavoisier's new chemistry. The principles are illustrated with experiments." -- Cole. / Accum (1769-1838), born in Germany where the family operated a small soap boiling business. In 1793 Accum came to London to take a position at Brande, apothecaries to George II. He became friends with Anthony Carlisle and William Nicholson and established his own laboratory. He assisted Sir Humphry Davy until 1803 (the year this book was issued). He also began lecturing in 1802 where is students included Benjamin Silliman and William Peck. He supplied apparatus to institutions abroad. Amazingly, in December 1820, he was arrested for mutilating books at the Royal Institution Library, which triggered his exiting England for Germany. "The value of Accum's work lies in the way he saw and exploited the technological possibilities of the rapidly advancing science of chemistry." [DSB].

- Date published: 1935
Ditchling, Sussex: Pepler & Sewell, St Dominic's Press, 1935. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. No. 140 of 300 copies, octavo size, [46] pp. The Saint Dominic's Press, founded by Harry (Hilary) Douglas Clarke Pepler, flourished at Ditchling, Sussex, from 1916 to 1936. The first home of the Press was "a disused stable", with a hundred-year-old Stanhope hand-press which supposedly had belonged to William Morris. Pepler endeavored to do everything possible by hand, believing that such would both produce the best results and also be a "more individual or 'humane'...product". He therefore "preferred the handpress to the machine, handmade to machine-made paper, and handset founder's type to the products of typesetting machines." Pepler met Edward Johnston and Eric Gill while living in Hammersmith; Pepler and his family would eventually move to Ditchling to join Gill, who was one of the most important artists to provide illustrations for the St. Dominic's Press. Other artists who provided illustrations included David Jones, Desmond Chute, Philip Hagreen, and Thomas Derrick, among others. Per the bibliography, "[The] Title page engraving has been attributed to Gill." ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in quarter-linen buff paper-covered boards, engraving on the title page of a chalice and wafer surrounded by a stylized sunburst; octavo size (8 1/4" x 5 1/2"), unpaginated with twenty-three printed leaves, errata slip tipped in at the back, limited edition of 300 copies, this is copy numbered 140, printed at St Dominic's Press, Ditchling Common, Hassocks, Sussex. ___CONDITION: Volume is near fine, with minimal rubbing, a strong, square text block and solid hinges, the interior is clean and bright, and entirely free of prior owner markings; slightly discolored boards and very slightly bumped corners, lacking the dust jacket. ___CITATION: Taylor & Sewell no. A246; note that the quotes and much of the introductory information from "Three Private Presses" by Brocard Sewell. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
