1PREFACE.
3This Handbook contains, in form convenient for everyday use, a comprehensive digest of the knowledge of making Violins and other Stringed Instruments, scattered over more than forty thousand columns of Work—one of the weekly journals it is my fortune to edit—and supplies concise information on the details of the subjects of which it treats.
5In preparing for publication in book form the mass of relevant matter contained in the volumes of Work, much had to be arranged anew, altered, and largely rewritten. From these causes it is difficult to distinguish the writings of individuals for acknowledgment, but it may be said that contributions from the pens of Mr. David McSkimming and Mr. Robert Ford are incorporated in this work.
7Readers who may desire additional information respecting special details of the matters dealt with in this Handbook, or instructions on kindred subjects, should address a question to The Editor, Work, La Belle Sauvage, London, E.C., so that it may be answered in the columns of that journal.
