Robert Angus Smith (1817-1884) was a Scottish chemist and a leading investigator into what came to be known as 'acid rain'.

It offers a fascinating insight into the changing landscape of British politics and is essential reading for historians of science, technology and industry in the nineteenth-century, as well as environmental historians seeking background context to the twentieth-century environmental movements.
