Abstract
VINEGAR or ‘Alegar,’ as the body when derived from beer was originally called, has been in household use from early times; it has been the subject of organised manufacture for generations; and for 250 years in Great Britain was an object of taxation for revenue purposes—a policy which still exists in some other countries. There is therefore a wealth of interesting historical material from which Mr. Mitchell has been able to draw in this manual on vinegar.
