Synopsis
The fascinating story of the development of steam power, from the earliest discoveries to the present day, is the subject of this lavishly illustrated book. The steam engine in all its forms -- on the railroad, at sea, on land, in the factory, on the farm and prairie and even in the fairground -- is discussed in detail and pictured in full color. Detailed line drawings illustrate the more technical aspects of the subject, including boilers and their accessories, turbines, and electricity generation.
