First Translation
No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches across multiple scholarly catalogs (including local catalogs, Google Books, and Internet Archive) yielded no evidence of an English translation of Johann Rudolph Glauber's 'De Auri Tinctura Sive Auro Potabili Vero' (1651). While Glauber's works were widely read and some were translated into English in the 17th century (notably by John French), this specific treatise does not appear to have been included in those collections or published separately in English. Given the lack of any record of a translation in major bibliographic databases, it is highly probable that this is a first English translation.
