Two Thousand Formulas, Recipes and Trade Secrets
The Classic "Do-It-Yourself" Book of Practical Everyday Chemistry
Harry Bennett, F.A.I.C.
Early in the twentieth century, pharmacists/druggists were regarded as de facto physicians, psychologists, chiropractors, and veterinarians to the common man, while their stores sold housewares, office supplies, gifts, toilet preparations, tobacco, and hard drugs that were at the time freely sold over the counter.
The most practical and scientifically correct formula book, as edited by the chemist Harry Bennett, was one called The Standard Book of Formulas: ow to Make What You Use... Over 2,000 Practical Modern Working Formulas for Making Useful Products, now available again from Feral House as Two Thousand Formulas, Recipes and Trade Secrets.
