Excerpt from Gas, Gasoline, and Oil Vapor Engines: A New Book Descriptive of Their Theory and Power, Illustrating Their Design, Construction and Operation for Stationary, Marine and Vehicle Motive Power
The early exhaustion of the first edition has verified the author's prediction that there was need of a work of this charac ter. The second edition has been corrected, revised, and con tains much new matter, including data relating to the adaptation of these motors to vehicles and launches, a branch of the subject that is of great and growing interest.
The patents of 1897 under their proper heading have been added, and, to forestall inquiry, a list of the names and addresses of the builders of explosive motors in the United States, so far as they could be ascertained, has also been appended.
