Description:
Sydney: Angus and Robertson, 1932. Third edition, enlarged. Good. Hardcover : pp. x, 272 (4) xviii (publisher's advertisement) : blue cloth covers with title to spine. Lettering to spine faded to be nearly illegible; cloth covers are scuffed and abraded with large patch of wear to centre of spine and further nibbling to tail; some foxing and soil marks to edges of block; light foxing to first and last leaves. First published in 1931, Idriess's 'how-to' manual was extremely popular, going into a second print run within a month. By 1932 it was into its third edition and over the next decade several more editions followed, making it a compendium of information for any historian of mining and metallurgy.
