Présentation de l'éditeur
Royal Agricultural Society of England. The work is the result of laborious observation and inquiry, which in various ways have been afforded from the circumstance of my engagement as a partner in a long established manufactory of agricultural implements. The facilities which this position has afforded me for obtaining a general knowledge of farming implements, and for becoming acquainted with the manufacture and trial of most of the machines in general use, leads me to hope that the information thus gathered, may not be without value, to those who are interested in the progress of Agricultural mechanics. With this view, I have ventured to sketch a history of the implements in past and present use, and to introduce such comments upon their practical utility, as may possibly assist the inquirer, in arriving at a correct knowledge of their merits.
