Excerpt from Manipulation of the Microscope
To such, if any, I submit that, being a producer of microscopes and their accessories, I have had opportunity to become acquainted with the lack of general knowledge of the fundamental principles of the instrument and the best methods of technique, even among owners of microscopes. Indeed, with so many complications, with almost unlimited powers and uses of the instrument, the beginner cannot fail to feel the need of a guide and adviser.
In order to accomplish the greatest good, I have started out in this little Manual with the supposition that the purchaser, or owner, is a beginner, and absolutely ignorant of the microscope and everything which pertains to it, and therefore have attempted to convey, step by step, in as simple language as I could command, information which will, I trust, lead to ease of manipulation and give both pleasure and profit to those for whom it was specially written.
With these, its purposes and hopes, I beg for my self-imposed labor a friendly reception.
