Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Sir John Fowler: Engineer, Bart;, K. C. M. G., Etc
In such a treatment of the subject the vastness of the details must have overwhelmed the features of any single personality, however eminent, and no such ambitious task has here been attempted. It has been the author's endeavour to sketch the lights and shades of a strong and interesting character, and to indicate the particular subdivision of scientific function to which Sir John Fowler's energies were so successfully devoted.
