Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the fascinating history of the steam engine, a remarkable invention that transformed the world. Tracing its origins from antiquity, the author recounts the story of its progressive development, from the rudimentary designs of Hero of Alexandria to the sophisticated engines of James Watt.
