A Manual of Marine Engineering, written by Albert Edward Seaton and originally published in 1890, is a comprehensive guide to the designing, construction, and operation of marine machinery. The book covers a wide range of topics related to marine engineering, including the principles of steam engines, boilers, and turbines, as well as the design and construction of ship propellers, pumps, and other machinery. The author also provides detailed information on the maintenance and repair of marine engines, and offers practical advice on the management and operation of steamships. The book is written in a clear and concise style, and is illustrated with numerous diagrams and photographs to aid understanding. It is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history and development of marine engineering, and is still widely used today by students, engineers, and naval architects.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
