4. Soap-Making Manual
A practical handbook on the raw
materials, their manipulation, analysis
and control in the modern
soap plant.
By
E. G. Thomssen, Ph. D.  over 260 pages

The material contained in this work appeared several
years ago in serial form in the American Perfumer
and Essential Oil Review. Owing to the numerous requests
received, it has been decided to now place before
those interested, these articles in book form. While it
is true that the works pertaining to the soapmaking
industry are reasonably plentiful, books are quite rare,
however, which, in a brief volume, will clearly outline
the processes employed together with the necessary
methods of analyses from a purely practical
standpoint.
