It covers fibre properties, grading and tests, then machinery for scouring, drying, carding, spinning, winding, warping, weaving, Jacquards, knitting, dyeing, mercerizing, and finishing (napping, gigging, shearing, tentering, pressing, baling). Many patented machines from British and American makers are described with line drawings. The volume ends with a buyers' index and many period advertisements from textile machinery and supply firms.
