In 1942 Dodd and Mead published the book 'Charles Hampton, Research Chemist' by Arthur W. Kenney and Stephen C. Kenney.  This book was part of the series of Dodd Mead Career Books written for young adults.  This book on a research chemist was one of a very few dealing with scientific careers.  This novel will be evaluated from the perspective of whether it gave a realistic view of an industrial chemistry career.
