Synopsis
Excerpt from The Steam-Engine and Other Steam-Motors, Vol. 2 of 2: A Text-Book for Engineering Colleges and a Treatise for Engineers; Form, Construction, and Working of the Engine, the Steam Turbine
It has not been thought desirable to burden the text with refer ences showing the source of every illustration. Many drawings have been made from makers' prints and advertising literature; the majority, perhaps, have been redrawn from engineering periodicals, usually with the selection of only the part desired; a few have been copied from other books, notably Leist's Steuerungen [iir Dampi maschinen and Stodola's Steam Turbines, Third Edition (ger man); while half a dozen line-drawings from catalogues have been transferred directly. As to periodicals. Engineering, Power, The Amer-wan Engineer and Railroad Journal and Marine Engineering have been freely drawn upon for material.
