Excerpt from Sketches of Engine and Machine Details: A Reference Book for the Use of Engineers, Draughtsmen, and Mechanics, and a Text Book for Machine Construction and Drawing Classes
My sincerest thanks are due to the eminent engineers and firms who have so kindly supplied me with working drawings; to my son, Mr. Hubert Bentley, who has undertaken much responsibility in connection with the work, and to my junior draughtsman, Mr. Horace Horsfall, for the preparation of some of the drawings.
Finally, I take this opportunity to thank the large number of Engineers, Draughtsmen, Technical School Teachers and others, in all parts of the world, who have written to me expressing their kind appreciations of the work.
