Published in 1903, it reflects the practices of a bygone era, when such organizations were still relatively new and their financial operations required a specific approach.

The book provides detailed explanations of the various ledgers, subsidiary books, and other financial tools used to manage these companies. Readers will find insightful discussions on the collection of rents, the operation of the stores department, and the crucial process of auditing. The author meticulously examines the various sources of revenue for water companies, including domestic supplies, industrial use, and shipping, all of which necessitate different accounting procedures.
