Excerpt from Historical and Descriptive Anecdotes of Steam-Engines, and of Their Inventors and Improvers, Vol. 2
Mr. Matthew Wasbrough was born at Bristol in 1753. As the best evidence of the estimation in which he was held by his townsmen, we quote the record of his death, in his twenty-eighth ear, from the Bristol Gazette of 1781.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores steam engine inventor James Watt's tireless journey to revolutionize an essential technology. After the death of his instrument-maker father, a curious young Watt inherited his workshop, where he began experimenting with steam engines. Watt's later partnership with Matthew Boulton, a wealthy industrialist and businessman, proved instrumental in their success. Beyond a comprehensive account of Watt's life and work, this book also presents an overview of steam engine technology in the 18th century, discussing other innovative engineers and inventors like Thomas Savery, Thomas Newcomen, and Richard Trevithick. The author provides a detailed technical analysis of Watt's many inventions and patents and shows how his contributions advanced the Industrial Revolution and shaped the modern world, particularly in transportation and manufacturing. This book will fascinate anyone interested in the history of technology, engineering, and the men whose ingenuity changed the world.
