Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Catechism of the Steam Engine in Its Various Applications to Mines, Mills, Steam Navigation, Railways, and Agriculture: With Practical Instructions for the Manufacture and Management of Engines of Every Class
I have only to add that I have prepared a sequel to the present work, in the shape of a hand-book of the Steam Engine, containing the whole of the rules given in the present work, illustrated by examples worked out at length, and also containing such useful tables and other data, as the engineer requires to refer to constantly in the course of his practice. This work may be bound up with the Catechism, if desired, to which it is in fact a Key.
