The following pages are intended to give the reader such knowledge of the methods and facts of gas power, as may enable him to appreciate the present commercial status of this branch of engineering and, if desired, to continue the study of the subject by means of more advanced works. The treatment has been made as simple and nonmathematical as possible, for the purpose of adapting it to the needs of students in the higher classes of manual training schools and other institutions devoted to industrial education. The book should also prove useful to those who wish to obtain a working knowledge in this field, but who have not had the advantages of a broad technical education. C. F. H. T. C. U. I thaca, N. Y.
