Sobre este artículo
New York: John Wiley & Sons, 1907. First Edition. Hardcover. Good+. Stated first edition, first thousand. With 18 engravings in the text and 19 plates. Cloth 8vo, 176pp + 19p catalog Several large folding plates measuring up to 12 x 36 inches. Good+ with rubbing to boards, most severe at the edges and with fraying/loss at the spine ends. Sticker remnant on spine. Previous owner's signature on the title page, else unmarked. Plates bright and crisp. Scarce. From the original review in Nature magazine: "Mr. Riemer is one of the leading German authorities on sinking, and a translation of his valuable treatise forms an addition to English technical literature that is specially welcome in view of the fact that shaft sinking, the most complicated of all mining problems, is necessarily dealt with in a brief manner in the standard works on coal-mining. The volume is confined to a description of means that have to be resorted to when ordinary methods of sinking cannot be applied on account of excessive influx of water, the means described being shaft sinking by hand, boring shafts, the freezing method of sinking, and the sinking-drum method."
