How to speculate in mines : being an exposition of the principles of investment and speculation, with descriptions of mine-developments and principal gold fields and a glossary of mining terms
INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR
IN undertaking the task to instruct the ordinary capitalist how to speculate in mining shares, I am well aware that it is no light and easy one, but is beset with many and formidable difficulties. I can but tackle it, however, and attempt to overcome those difficulties, leaving it to others to judge of the success that I may attain. A book of this kind is, I think, greatly needed, for though one or two have been published during a long course of years, they have been by no means exhaustive enough, nor even lucid enough to satisfy the needs of the layman and amateur investor and speculator. I hope that my little work, therefore, will supply a much-felt want, and be of real help and use to those for whom it is written. As for my qualifications for the task I have set myself, it would be prudent of me to say nothing, as the evidence or lack of evidence of them will be clearly manifest in the pages that follow. But during the man years I sat in the editorial chair of the Mining Journal I learnt a great deal, and the fruits of that knowledge and experience I now offer to the acceptance of those whom they concern, and to whom I hope they will be of some benefit.
