Hardbound. Etat : Very Good. Limited Edition. Description: Color frontis and eight additional black and white plates, plus text illustrations. From the preface by Jock Scott: ''For a number of years prior to his death, the late Mr A H E Wood had been collecting material with a view to publishing a book on the method of salmon angling which he invented. In September, 1933, he discussed this proposed book with me; giving me a rough outline of the form it would take. Thanks to the kind offices of his son, I have been able to compile the present volume. I felt that Mr Wood's remarkable abilities should be commemorated in a book; that he should have a volume entirely devoted to himself and his method. Hitherto his revolutionary practices have been described merely in chapters of books devoted to salmon fishing a whole.'' This was limited to 1000 copies. BINDING/CONDITION: green cloth with gilt spine text; a Very Good book, with a Good slipcase index. 8vo (8.75 inches tall). 221 pages.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the crucial yet often overlooked challenge of waterproofing concrete, a practice that was in its infancy in the early 20th century. While the author acknowledges the plethora of patented and often secretive waterproofing preparations available, they also emphasize the skepticism surrounding their effectiveness among prominent cement experts of the time. The book explores the various approaches to waterproofing, from surface coatings to the incorporation of specialized additives directly into the concrete mix. The author meticulously details the shortcomings of each method, highlighting the difficulties of achieving uniform and long-lasting protection. Through a series of rigorous experiments conducted at the Armour Institute of Technology, the author meticulously evaluates the performance of several popular waterproofing compounds. This in-depth analysis examines factors like tensile strength, absorption rates, and resistance to water pressure, providing invaluable insights into the true efficacy of these waterproofing solutions. The book's detailed examination of the scientific principles and practical challenges associated with waterproofing concrete offers a unique historical perspective on the evolving field of building materials and construction practices. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
