A Grammar Of Chemistry: Wherein The Principles Of The Science Are Explained And Familiarized By A Variety Of Examples And Illustrations, And By Numerous Useful And Entertaining Experiments, To Which Are Added, Interrogatory Exercises, And A Glossary Of Terms Used In Chemistry — Rev. D. Blair. This early 19th-century elementary chemistry textbook aims to popularize the subject through concise explanations, illustrative experiments, and a comprehensive glossary. It presents general principles about simple and compound substances, chemical attraction, and the distinctions between mixtures and solutions, and proceeds through topics such as light and caloric, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, and the metals. The work emphasizes observation and hands-on learning, offering numerous experiments (evaporation, distillation, sublimation, gas generation) and a set of interrogatory exercises to reinforce understanding. It also covers mineral waters, vegetable and animal substances, fermentation, and the chemistry of acids, salts, and oxides, reflecting the era’s chemical theory and pedagogy. The Fourth Edition (1823) from Philadelphia includes revisions by Benjamin Tucker and additions of exercises and clarifications, designed for school use.
