Excerpt from The Principles of Mechanism, Machinery of Transmission: Comprising the Principles of Mechanism, Wheels and Pulleys, Strength and Proportions of Shafts, Couplings Fur, Shafts, and Engaging and Disengaging Gear
This work, now offered to the public, on the "Principles of Mechanism and Transmission," is taken from the work of the distinguished author on "Mills and Millwork," which is large and expensive, and contains many details of Millwork not entirely adapted to American practice. The great principles here given lie at the very foundation of the art of transmitting mechanical power, and must prove of inestimable value to American mill-owners; mechanics, and operatives.
In the present volume Mr. Fairbairn gives the results of his very successful practice as a Millwright and Engineer, during a period of half a century - a period which has contributed more than any previous one to the manufacturing industry of the world.
