"The Alcohol Test in Relation to Milk," by Samuel Henry Ayers, offers a detailed examination of the alcohol test as a method for assessing the quality and freshness of milk. Published in 1915, this work provides insights into the early 20th-century practices of dairy science and public health. The book delves into the scientific principles behind the alcohol test, its practical application, and its reliability in detecting milk spoilage.

Ayers meticulously explores the factors that influence the test's outcome, including the presence of bacterial contamination and the chemical changes that occur as milk ages. This historical study is invaluable for researchers, historians of science, and anyone interested in the evolution of food safety standards and dairy farming practices. It sheds light on the challenges faced by early investigators in ensuring the quality and safety of milk for consumers.
