Metallurgy and Metalworking

(Also see the Tools or the trades bibliography sections on blacksmiths, foundry operations, and silversmiths and the Industrial Revolution bibliography)

The special focus of the Davistown Museum bibliographies in the Hand Tools in History series is on ferrous metallurgy from the early Iron Age to the beginning of the modern era. Numerous references pertaining to modern iron and steel making technologies are included in our bibliographies, which are nonetheless not intended to be a survey of important references on this topic.
