7654To Thomas Jefferson from James Cutbush, 29 September 1822 (Jefferson Papers)
Finding that we laboured under many difficulties for want of a text book on Military Pyrotechny, as works on that subject are principally in French, I was induced from that consideration to compile a complete system for the use of our Chemical department to be used in conjunction with the usual Chemical class books.
