We will be bringing you all kinds of old and interesting books. They are
all out of their original copyright, so we are tidying them up and annotating
them. They will be updated with their new copyright marks and will be available
on CD or for download. Payment by PayPal only
Steam engines, steam engine design, engineering text-books (both theoretical and practical) and other practical handbooks will be coming soon. Check back frequently. If you register with us we will be emailing updates when available.
Here is a few random pages from Steam Engine design by J M Whitham
I have managed to get hold of Burrell 'Instructions for working Traction Engines' and Fowler 'Working Instructions for Steam Ploughing Engines'.
Download the Burrell instructionsThese are free to dowload, but if you find them (or the site as a whole) to be helpful you may want to help with the hosting costs. Every donation, even £0.50 or £1 helps us keep the site up and active.
