    XU PKEFACE eally truthful manner, that I determined in my leisure to re-write the whole work, improving the theory, and largely extending the practical portion of the subject, all that follows being the result of the determination so formed. It is difficult to please scientific and mere practical readers at the same time, and perhaps there is the less reason to gratify the former, as far more advanced works on the subject of modern brewing are constantly being published; but, at any rate, I may express the hope that even to scientific readers my theory may appear sound, and to the brewer interesting, as explanatory of the process that he has to conduct. I have to tender my ready thanks to Mr. G. E. Wilson, of Frome, for the aid he has kindly given me hi the matter of illustra- tions, which will, I think, prove serviceable to many of my readers, and to those in personal connection with myself who have rendered assistance in preparation of copy and revision of proofs. In con- clusion, I venture to hope that “ The Theory and Practice of Modern Brewing” will prove as interesting. to brewers of the present day as “ The Art of Brewing” seemed to be when it was first published.
