De Ferri Metallographia: Metallographic Atlas of Iron, Steels and Cast Irons: Volume I-Fundamentals of Metallography; Volume II-Structure of Steels; Volume III-Solidification and Deforming of Steels

      W.B. Saunders. Very Good Ex-Professional Library. 4to-over 9¾"-12" tall. Classic comprehensive three-volume reference work covers a broad range of topics in metallography complete with numerous color and black and white micrographs. Volume one comprises a general study of the structures of irons, steels, and cast irons; outlines main principles of metallography, and methods and apparatus used in metallography. Volume two covers the structures of an exhaustive series of types of steel, ranging from pure iron and low-alloy steels to the specialized steels. Volume three illustrates the evolution of the structures of materials in the as-cast state and after plastic deformation and various anneals. Includes color metallography and a study on non-metallic inclusions. Text is written in three languages: English, French and German. 1501 pgs. collectively. Illustrated. Small prior ownership name stamps on endpapers and lower title pg. Spine labels neatly removed with very minimal marks. Minor small closed tear on the upper edge of title page taped.
