a few of the modern books on the subject

of color which the author of this

work has found most useful
 

Bradley, Milton, author of "Color in the Schoolroom" and
"Color in the Kindergarden."—Elementary Color. With an
Introduction by Henry Lafavour, Ph. D., Professor of Physics,
Williams College. Milton Bradley and Co., Springfield, Mass.
[1895]. Small 8vo., pp. [i]-iv, [1] -128; colored frontispiece
("miniature color charts made from the Bradley educational
colored papers," showing 126 unnamed colors) and numerous
figures in text.

The present writer frankly and gratefully acknowledges that
he has learned more, and learned it more easily, from this little
book, which is a model of conciseness and perspicuity, than from
careful study of more elaborate and authoritative works on the
subject. It is therefore most heartily recommended to the
student as a preliminary, at least, to the study of more technical
works on color.
