Abstract
THE original design of the author of this book was to provide material covering the more theoretical parts of the subject required faiaval cadets up to the time of their leaving the training cruisers. While this object has been kept in view, sufficient additional matter has been included to render the book useful to other classes of students. The method of treatment of the thermodynamic principles is good, and will be readily comprehended by any reader who has but slight knowledge of higher mathematics.
