Summary[edit]

Description

A photograph of a page out of Encyclopédie, published by Denis Diderot, showing one phase of the operation of making gun-powder taking place in an 18th Century powder-mill. This publication would probably been available to The American Philosophical Society prior to the American Revolution.
