Excerpt from Handy Lists of Technical Literature, Vol. 3
Mr. Haferkorn having shown me the proof sheets of Part III of his "Handy Lists of Technical Literature" relating to the subjects of Engineering and Mechanics in all their manifold arteries, I find them apparently complete in what they are designed to be, lists of all English books treating upon the above topics, published since 1880 and a full alphabetical index of all the subjects treated therein, with numerical references to authors, etc. A timely publication, it must become invaluable to the engineer, mechanic or student, as a Key to the English literature upon the above special subjects, enabling him almost at a glance to locate any and all treatises upon any of the topics embraced within the above branches.
The compiler has by his exhaustive labors and researches, covering some 2145 works, performed for the profession the tedious, sometimes perplexing search for information and references and presented the results in a more comprehensive and systematic manner than was ever before attempted.
The simplicity and completeness of this catalogue will truly make them "Handy Lists" of reference to all interested in these special subjects, none of whom will be without them, when once their value is thoroughly understood.
