An overall clean, solid copy of this 1974 reprint of A.C. Hobbs' original 1868 work. ABOUT THIS BOOK: In this brilliant treatise on locks and safes the author's incredible genius shines out of every chapter. His knowledge of the subject is profound. Names like Bramah, Denison and Fenby all have an honoured place in this work, not to mention the famous incident of the "Lock Controversy" in which the author himself took a prominent and active part. To the general reader of today this treatise which Weale must have found as valuable as any in his Series, represents not only an historical account of inventors and their times, interesting as this may be, but a fascinating description of the mechanism of all types of locks covering the ancient devices of Roman and Grecian times up to the more advanced locks of the nineteenth century. The book is illustrated throughout.(Publisher).
