Excerpt from Dictionary of Textiles

The tendency in modern books of a technical character undoubtedly inclines very strongly toward encyclopedic and dictionary forms. The cry for the saving of time calls for books in compact form with information handy at a moment's notice.

The present DICTIONARY is the result of 7 1/2 years of collecting and compiling information, gained to a large extent in connection with my work on the Daily Trade Record and Women's Wear. With over 6,600 terms and definitions contained in it, this DICTIONARY is as nearly complete, in number of terms strictly relating to textile fibres and fabrics, as it is possible for a work of this kind to be.

It was my desire to present in the DICTIONARY - and within as small compass as practical - the largest number of terms and definitions possible, relating to textiles from the fibres to the finished fabrics and everything which goes into them in the course of the manufacture. An interesting part of the DICTIONARY contains names of fabrics, now obsolete, with as complete a description of their character as it was possible to find in various old laws, wills, lists and in the technical literature. Owing to the fact that manufacturers constantly have recourse to some obsolete fabric in search of new effects, details of manufacturing and finishing of such materials ought to be interesting.

While it was the intention to include textiles found in use in every country throughout the world, owing to their importance special attention was given to French, English and German textiles. The South and Central American republics with their markets, which are interesting to the American importer have been covered, for the first time I believe, in this DICTIONARY.

It was thought advisable to include among the terms incorporated in this book the names of the more important chemicals and to indicate their uses in the course of textile manufacturing and finishing, as the character of a fabric is greatly altered by the application of various chemicals in the finishing process.
