First Edition
Couverture rigide. Condition: Très bon. Edition originale. in 8°, de 3ff. 183pp. 1f. de table, ill. de 6 tableaux se dépl. et 10 planches gravées dépl., ornements sur bois in t., pl. veau blond glacé XIXe, dos orné, p. de t. rouge et verte, double encadrement doré sur les plats avec fleurons d'angle, dentelle int., tr. rouges. (Chipot). Edition originale rare de ce traité important. C'est la description de la première machine à vapeur construite en Italie. Cambray-Digny, au service du Grand-Duc de Toscane, construisit sa machine d'après celle de Thomas Savery, pour pomper l'eau de la mer à Castiglione (Toscane) vers les salines situées au delà des dunes. Il ajouta diverses méthodes ingénieuses d'ouverture et de fermeture des soupapes de manière à rendre le mécanisme presque auto-régulateur. Ce livre est un récit très détaillé de la construction, y compris ses modifications de dernière minute. Les planches montrent des détails du moteur, et quatre d'entre elles montrent des moteurs construits par Bélidor, Musschenbroek, et une pompe anglaise sans nom. Le livre comprend en 2e partie un mémoire sur le sel et les salines (p.106 à 164) avec des tableaux sur les propriétés du sel, et en 3e partie un supplément daté du 10 May 1766. Sotheran n°6684 "rare". Bel exemplaire très frais et grand de marges.

4to, pp. (v), 105, (1) blank, (1), 106?180, 2 leaves (contents and errata), 6 folding letterpress tables and 10 folding engraved plates. Woodcut ornaments and initials. Old vellum, recased with later endpapers. A little foxing on the first three leaves and in the margins elsewhere. Bookplate of Giannalisa Feltrinelli. FIRST EDITION, first issue (see below). The first steam engine to be built in Italy. Cambray Digny built his steam engine, based on Thomas Savery?s, to pump salt water from the sea at Castiglione in Tuscany to the salt-works on the other side of the dunes which lay between. He took great care in the adjustment of its various parts and he added various ingenious methods for opening and shutting the valves so as to make the mechanism almost self-regulating. This book is a very detailed account of its construction, including his last-minute changes. The engraved plates show details of the engine, and four of them show engines built by Bélidor, Musschenbroek, and an unnamed English pump. The book includes (pp. 107?164) a memoir on salt and salt-works, and the folding tables are on the properties of salt from various sources. This issue has 180 pages, the final errata leaf, and the errata uncorrected. Another issue has 183 pages, the supplement dated 10th May 1766 (pp. 165 to the end) being reset. It contains details of the changes that Cambray Digny made to the engine while the book was being printed.
