Book excerpt: Early in the century the government attempted to prohibit the export of explosives for fear they might fall into the hands of the country's enemies and several papers deal with the difficulties this prohibition placed upon the industry. Later in the century explosives became an important export and reports and papers describe the efforts made by the authorities to prevent accidental explosions in harbours and on board ships. The introduction of dynamite and ammonia dynamites in the 1860s and 1870s led the government to appoint select and departmental committees to advise on changes in the law relating to explosives which were necessary to protect the public against misuse of these powerful new explosives. -- Publisher's catalogue.
