Synopsis
Written at the end of the nineteenth century and catered toward beginners, Model Engine-Making is a fascinating and comprehensive guide to building your first steam engine. While steam is no longer "the most important power of the day," this work remains a fascinating in-depth guide for those with either a theoretical or practical interest in building and using small steam engines. Included inside this classic book are over 100 detailed diagrams, drawn by the author, to illustrate the process of building nine different engines. Whether you are a model engine aficionado or love learning about the history of steam engines, this long-standing classic should be in your library.
