The author's goal was to create a compact book which treats the creation of photographic prints by chemical (rather than mechanical) means. Based on the contents, he has been thorough, dealing with plain salted and albuminized paper, POP printing, Colloid-chloride paper, self-toning papers, bromide printing, carbon printing, the carbro process, platinotype and palladiotypes, gum-bichromate, oil, bromide, iron-printing processes, dye-printing, and even printing on china and fabrics.
