Présentation de l'éditeur

Since the first part of this work was published, it has occurred to the author that several matters of interest might be added; he has included a description of Hand-power pumps, also particulars of several modern pumping engines, notably Deep Mine pumps at Derby, by Messrs. Thornewill and Warham; Blowing Engines by the same firm; Hydraulic Pumping Engines by Mr. E. B. Ellington; Botary Pumping Dock Engines by Messrs. Hick, Hargreaves Co. of Bolton, also by Messrs. J. and H. Gwynne; Waterworks Engines by Messrs. Easton and A nderson; sundry Direct-acting Pumping Engines; the Pulsometer and other machines; a description of Messrs. Merryweather sS team Land Fire Engines andS team Floats, as well as Force Pumps for Hydraulic Press work; Davey sP atent Motor for driving pumps; and sundry other matters of interest. The leading machinery above mentioned is illustrated in Drawings Nos. 24 to 35. The author believes most of the chief types of pumping machinery in use in this country are now described in the book, and he trusts the value of the information contained will be much increased by the additions made. He will be much indebted to any one who will favour him with any suggestions or extra detail for a future edition of the book, it being his intention as far as possible to describe at least one type of the most modern kind of pumping machinery at present in use.
