FOR a long time the public have been in want of a work on the art
of Distillation and Rectification, couched in such language that
every one could appreciate it; and of such size and value that the
price, and the time required to read it, would prove the least
objectionable. From the best information I can gain, no work has
appeared on this subject for many years. Owing to this fact, most
of the improvements which have been made in the art have proved of
little use to the larger class; and thus things have almost
remained stationary with regard to this very important matter,
particularly in this country; which is, indeed, greatly to be
lamented, as we are in possession of every thing, in the way of
fruits, vegetables, etc., which have hitherto been used in
distillation. I trust that in the following pages the reader will
find every thing that the present state of science calls for, and
that the suggestions may prove of great practical advantage; which
I think they will do, as every thing is given in the shortest and
plainest manner. It is almost needless to say that I have consulted
every authority that I could find, for the purpose of making this a
complete work; they are, however, too numerous to mention here, and
would be, moreover, of no benefit to the reader. With these few
prefatory remarks, the book is submitted to the public.
