About this book
Steam power, railways, steam navigation, the manufacture of iron and steel, the telegraph and the telephone are among the subjects Robert Routledge describes for general readers, together with a few discoveries of pure science. He assumes no knowledge beyond an ordinary education and aims for clear, concise accounts. The thirteenth edition of 1900 was revised and partly rewritten, with the article on iron and steel written afresh and 456 illustrations. Routledge, a B.Sc., had been an assistant examiner in chemistry and natural philosophy at the University of London.
