520 _a"The Methods of Glass Blowing and of Working Silica in the Oxy-Gas Flame" by W. A. Shenstone is a practical guide written in the early 20th century. This publication serves as an instructional manual for chemical and physical students, focusing on the fundamentals of glass-blowing techniques and the manipulation of silica. It is aimed both at beginners and those seeking to enhance their skills in laboratory apparatus creation and handling. The opening of the book introduces readers to the practicalities of glass-blowing, emphasizing the accessibility of these operations for those with average manual dexterity and perseverance. Shenstone explains the purpose and setup of the workspace, including essential tools like the blow-pipe and bellows, highlighting their importance in executing various glass-working techniques. As he emphasizes the systematic approach required to master the craft, he outlines the structure of the book, preparing readers for specific chapters that will detail types of glass, various operations, and the construction of complex apparatuses in chemistry and physics.
