Abstract
THE author of this book is to be congratulated both upon having produced what will prove to be a useful book of reference for engineers engaged in the arduous work of tunnelling, and also upon the fair and impartial manner in which he writes. He has given credit to those men whose names are associated with certain great improvements, and has not attempted, as is sometimes unfortunately the case, to claim inventions for his countrymen which rightfully belong to English, Italian or other nationalities.
