Hardcover. Condition: Good. This the stated third edition, 148 pp. "In an industry advancing as rapidly as that of motor manufacture, what is new today is often out of date in a very short period. Thisin revising the book for the third issue, it has been necessary to eliminate the description of a good many appliances which have now been generally discarded, and to insert descriptions of mechanisms and constructions which have been latterly adopted.Thus in the present edition a great deal of matter has had to be included which will not be found in teh previous editions." From the preface of this edition.Illustrated wu=ith photos and diagrams. Front hinge broken, covers worn and wrinkled. Interior generally clean and bright with neat photos oc contemporary vehicles. This copy still c 1903.

Looks as someone put tape on spine which has been removed, small square of tape on front of the cover. The title page has loss to the bottom corner. All in place but a little shaky. Wonderful early adverts and illustrations.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the early days of the automobile, offers a comprehensive guide to the inner workings of the internal combustion engine. The author takes the reader on a journey through the mechanics of the Otto cycle, the heart of the gasoline-powered engine, and then explores each component in detail: the piston, connecting rod, crankshaft, valves, timing gears, and the crucial carburettor which mixes fuel and air. The text is laced with practical advice on how to operate and maintain a car, covering everything from lubrication and ignition to the challenges of side-slip and common engine malfunctions. The book provides a rare glimpse into the mindset of early motorists, a time when the car was a marvel of engineering and its operation was considered a challenge rather than a simple chore. The author's descriptions, often drawing analogies to familiar objects like bicycles, reveal a fascination with the intricacies of this new mode of transportation. With its detailed diagrams and lucid explanations, this book remains a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the origins of the modern automobile and the technological breakthroughs that made it possible. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
