Reader's note

This two book collection will brighten up your library and expand your horizons! These volumes are filled to the brim with facts and figures that you may not have know. In the 17th century, special soap was often made at home, and was a very definite trade. Some London Soap-Makers were fined for not obeying their inspectors. If they used fish oil for their soap, their pans and vats were destroyed, their estates ruined and they themselves could be imprisoned! Did you also know that in 1670 a man boring with augur for coals at Droitwich accidently discovered rock salt. The book describes the event as follows 'out of the hole the brine burst up as if it had been squirted out by a London fire engine'. A truly fascinating collections of tomes!
