Binding tight. Endpaper maps toned; pages otherwise clean and unmarked. Sellers (1808-1899), grandson of the wire-mold maker Nathan Sellers and of Charles Willson Peale, grew up in his family's Philadelphia fire-engine and machine shops and set down his recollections in American Machinist between 1884 and 1893. Ferguson gathered the articles, added episodes from the Peale-Sellers papers at the American Philosophical Society, and annotated them. Part I covers the Philadelphia shops: Jacob Perkins, Oliver Evans, Patrick Lyon's fire engines, Isaiah Lukens and Joseph Saxton, the first and second U.S. Mints and the 1836 steam coining press, and the Redheffer perpetual-motion fraud. Part II follows the family paper business to the Gilpin mill on the Brandywine and on Sellers's 1832 visit to Maudslay, Brunel, Donkin, and Perkins in England. Part III takes in the Philadelphia and Columbia Railroad, the Allegheny Portage Railroad, the Cardington locomotive works, Baldwin, Phineas Davis, and Seth Boyden. Ferguson (1916-2004) was the Smithsonian's curator of mechanical and civil engineering and later president of the Society for the History of Technology.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents transformative improvements to locomotive engines and rail systems, promising to extend rail lines beyond the boundaries set by current technology. The author, a leading expert in locomotive engineering, elucidates the challenges posed by steep inclines and the limitations of present-day rail infrastructure. His novel solution involves a shift from weight-based adhesion to pressure-based adhesion, harnessing the resistance of the train itself to enhance tractive power. This innovative approach reduces the strain on rails and engines, enabling the use of lighter locomotives that are more economical and less damaging to the infrastructure. The book delves into the intricacies of this system, exploring its advantages for both level and inclined tracks, and highlighting its potential to revolutionize rail transportation by making it more accessible and cost-effective. 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.…
