О книге

Excerpt from The Practical Gasoline Engine: A Manual of Gas and Gasoline Knowledge

The great demand for gas and gasoline engines is one of the remarkable features of the age. While steam and electricity, have done wonders in furnishing power and locomotion, neither as yet is sufficiently practical for business or pleasure in cases where a moderate amount of power is required. On the road the latter is limited to the wealthy, while steam is hardly employed by any for reasons that soon suggest themselves. For business purposes we believe that gas and gasoline engines are much more adaptable than either of the others, electricity still being unsufficiently developed, so that expense cuts too much of an item to justify its general use; and steam being noisy and in a great many cases, on farms for instance, the cause of stacks and barns being swept away by flames, caused maybe by some sudden change of the wind.

What the future has in store for either steam or electricity we do not pretend to foretell, but for the present the gas or gasoline engine is the one that comes up to the standard that requires durability, speed, safety, smoothness, and yet within the reach of the man of moderate means.
