RE: Looking for "The London Tradesman" by R. Campbell

Everybody,

I am working on some skill buildings exercises for the Chapters. 

One of the books that I would like to reference is the "The London Tradesman."  It was originally written in 1747 by Robert Campbell.  The part that I am looking for is the section on the Cabinetmaker's Apprentices, Journeyman, and Master. 

If anybody has this book, would you please contact me?

Thanks,
David
 
David,

Missed you on Sunday.  Knowing what you're after, you'll be disappointed with the London Tradesman.  You'd do better with Moxon.  Campbell only talks about working conditions, wages, hours, stuff like that.  Its a guide to parents to help them choose the right trade for their boys.
