Excerpt from Recent Improvements in the Steam-Engine: In Its Various Applications to Mines, Mills, Steam Navigation, Railways, and Agriculture, Being a Supplement to 'the Catechism of the Steam-Engine' In this Introduction I propose to recapitulate the most useful information I have been able to collect respecting the improvements which have been made in the steam engine during the last decennium. As this work addresses practical engineers, and not mere desultory or superficial enquirers, it is indispensable that the information it affords should not only be intrinsically sound and practical, but that it should be cleared of all tinge of antiquity. In an art so rapidly progressive as mechanical engineering, the knowledge of ten years ago is no longer adequate to satisfy the wants or direct the operations of present practice; and, under this conviction, it has appeared to me that the time has come when it would be proper to review the information which the present work contains, in order that it might be rendered more conformable to the accredited maxims of the time, and also that reliable information respecting altered modes and new improvements might be fully afforded.
