Glass and Glass Manufacture

"Glass and Glass Manufacture" by Percival Marson is a book that explores the story of glassmaking, from its ancient origins to its important place in modern times. Beginning with the early innovations of the Phoenicians and Egyptians, the narrative traces the development of glass production techniques and raw materials. It emphasizes how glass has become increasingly essential in homes, science, and industry, especially after the First World War created a need for Britain and other nations to be self-sufficient in glass production. The book aims to give the reader a strong understanding of the basics of glass manufacture, encouraging more people to learn about and get involved in this complex and important field.
