Sinossi
Excerpt from A Manual of Steam-Boilers: Their Design, Construction, and Operation; For Technical Schools and Engineers
The chapter on explosions is already in print, with a few additions, as a treatise on the subject, published by Messrs. J. Wiley 8: Son. It was considered that such publication would very possibly prove of some service in preventing this proba bly absolutely preventable class of disasters, and that it would secure a wider circulation, and do so much the more good, if printed as a separate monograph.
