Présentation de l'éditeur

Until May 1904 the writer had not directed his attention to the construction of garbage crematories, although he had been deeply interested in kindred problems. It then unexpectedly devolved upon him to remedy defects in the design of garbage crematories already built, and to advise regarding the prosecution of patents in which friends were interested. This work involved investigation of what has been done in the field of crematory construction a study which has been carried on by two methods, namely, inspection of installations actually built, and analysis of features of design as discoverable from Patent Office records. To place the useful data so secured where others may profit by them is one object of this book. An attempt has been made to indicate the principles of design of every type of crematory built in the United States, and to give a list of installations at least large enough to enable any interested party to look into the merits and to mark the development of any system. The writer would be glad to receive supplementary data. However, the scope of the book is not limited to a discussion of designs.
