A History of Cans

I have reviewed this book as part of my activity for the Evart-Gunn Publishing Company Book Salvage OperationRead this First
"A History of Cans" by Hillary Kahn, 1902, Solloway & Co, Publishing, Pittsburgh, Hardcover, 202 pages, 18 full color illustrations.
Physically, a very beautiful book with an attractive green cover printed on heavy, luxurious, off-white heavy stock.
Content-wise, an extremely confusing and badly written dissertation on cans (origins, uses, classification and future of the can).
Looks good on the shelves but a waste of production effort ... Peter Solloway should have known better!
