Robert H. Jones wrote this book, published in London by C. Lockwood in 1890, as a survey of asbestos and its trade, with accounts of the Italian and Canadian mines. Its chapters cover sources of supply, then uses: steam packings, boiler coverings, cement and fire-felt in engineering; theatre curtains, safes and firemen's clothing for fire protection; and filters, stove linings, paint, gloves and papers. Later chapters treat substitutes such as slag wool and fibre spinning.
