A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The present edition is so much enlarged, by the addition of the tenth and eleventh Lectures, including an account of theL iverpool Railway, and of the preparations for workingS team-C arriages upon turnpike roads, that it may be regarded as a new work, rather than a new edition of the former one. I have neglected no means of obtaining correct information on the subjects included in these two additional sections. On the occasion of a recent visit to the Railway at Liverpool, I was favoured with opportimities of witnessing the performances and capabihties of the engines ;and the results of experiments made in my presence are given in the tenth Lecture of the present edition.
