The Life of Robert Stephenson, F. R. S. , Etc. , Etc. , Late President of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint) by J. C. Jeaffreson PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from The Life of Robert Stephenson, F. R. S., Etc., Etc., Late President of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Vol. 1 of 2 A careful examination of the many published works which, either specially or incidentally, treat of the labours of the two Stephensons, was amongst the first steps which I took towards the performance of my task. I read critically a large number of scientific volumes, biographies, lectures, and articles bearing upon the history of the locomotive, upon the art of building bridges, and upon the careers of the men who, during the last Sixty years, have brought our railway system to its present state of efficiency. My surprise was great at finding that the statements of the various treatises were irreconcilable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
