Notes on Irrigation Works A Course of Lectures delivered at Oxford under the auspices of the Common University Fund

Abstract

THESE lectures in book form have as their author an engineer whose competency to deal with his subject is sufficiently established by the fact that he was selected to be Under Secretary for Irrigation to the Government of India. The duties of that office, coming after a career of practical work on irrigation schemes, would give that breadth of view with which a lecturer on so wide a subject as “Irrigation Works”should be endowed.

Notes on Irrigation Works. A Course of Lectures delivered at Oxford under the auspices of the Common University Fund.

By N. F. Mackenzie. Pp. ix + 111. (London: Constable and Co., Ltd., 1910.) Price 7s. 6d. net.
