Desborough begins his report by describing the principles that British mining regulations are based upon in order to suggest regulations for the Canadian explosives industry. He remarks then, on the precautionary measures, storage, transportation, and use of explosives observed in Canadian plants. Desborough concludes his report with detailed recommendations for regulatory legislation.
This work may have belonged to Walter O. Snelling (1880-1965), an industrial chemist who primarily worked with explosives and pyrotechnics, due to the presence of his signature on the work's cover.
