Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book concerns itself with the capabilities of steamships, investigating their economics and analyzing various projects proposed for them, such as regular transatlantic crossings and long-distance voyages to India. The author critically examines the viability of these projects based on the technological limitations of the time, arguing that extreme caution should be exercised when committing to ambitious steamship endeavors. The book provides a detailed assessment of the relationship between a ship's displacement, power, speed, and profitability, emphasizing the need to balance these factors carefully to ensure economic feasibility. By presenting a comprehensive analysis of steamship technology and its limitations, this book offers valuable insights for understanding the challenges and opportunities of maritime transport in the mid-19th century.
