« This book is designed to present a clear and concise statement of the principal methods employed in Fancy and Carriage Painting; and to form a reliable Manual for the experienced workman, as well as the apprentice. Having been practically engaged in the business since 1850, and having paid great attention to the art, science and mystery of fine painting, I have, in common with others, met with many difficulties, which careful experiment and perseverance have overcome. Therefore, in laying before my readers the results of my own experience, it is with the hope that my endeavors to aid my fellow craftsmen will not fail of appreciation. » Présentation de l’éditeur (1871)
