Publisher's Synopsis
Catalogue of Works on Alchemy and Chemistry, Exhibited at the Grolier Club New-York, Jan, 16th to Jan 26th, 1891 is a three part series that discusses works on alchemy and chemistry produced, written, or displayed by the Grolier Club. Known as one of the finest gentleman's clubs in New York City, The Grolier club was a private club, relegated only to men, and with the emphasis on including (if not exclusively) bibliophiles. The members collected, discussed, and above all, read books voraciously. Their deep passion for the printed word is what inspired their famous exhibits, including a variety of works from authors across the country and on every subject imaginable.
This catalog is a comprehensive listing of all books exhibited at the Grolier Club by author's last name. The second volume of this series begins in the A's and works through the alphabet until the Z's, listing 110 separate titles.
