Excerpt from Treatise on Valve-Gears: With Special Consideration of the Link-Motions of Locomotive Engines
The great circulation and the general acknowledgment which Professor Zeuner's Circle Diagram obtained in a few years amongst the German Engineers, and also the little knowledge of it which exists in England, have induced me, on the occasion of the publication of the Third Edition of Professor Zeuner's 'Treatise on Valve Motions' to translate this edition into the English language. I now hand over to the public this Translation (which is as nearly as possible a literal one), and have only to add the desire, that the excellent work by Professor Zeuner may meet in England with the same success as it has in Germany, and that it may be as generally adopted.
