Care of marine, stationary, & locomotive engines. Also pumping, hoisting, portable engines; gas, oil, & air engines.

"The reader is invited in the succeeding pages to examine down to almost microscopic detail the greatest physical thing on earth." - Preface. With more than 296 illustrations. Apparently this is the last of the Audel's editions on steam engines. "The subject matter ...is not arranged in chapters, but according to the more natural order best designed to explain at greater or less length the different themes discussed. ... There is also a description of the numerous types of the engines now in operation, such as the Corliss, Westinghouse, etc."

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
