 PREFACE

This series of articles entitled “Welding and The World of Metals” first appeared in the
Memco News, the official house organ of MILLER Electric Manufacturing Co.,
beginning in June-July, 1961, issue.

Since that time, a total of seven articles have been written compiling historical data
researched from many sources. The articles were intended to bring some light to the
welding industry concerning the massive heritage we have received from those who
have gone before.

It has been said that “to learn is to know.” If we may judge from comments by schools
and students, we have apparently succeeded in a small way in providing some of the
material for learning. This is a rich reward indeed.

The essays in this publication are presented in their original form

Note and are intended to provide a nostalgic, yet accurate account of
the origin of welding. The essays may not reflect the latest welding
products or practices.
