Hoskins, Leander Miller. Text-book on hydraulics, including an outline of the theory of turbines. *$2.50. Holt.
6–38547.
A text for the use of instructors of experience and thorough training in the subject, a work giving the fundamental principles in a clear and concise form without elaboration.
“As a whole it may be said that the book presents the laws and theories of hydraulics as they were recognized 20 to 25 years ago. There is authority for most of its statements in the treatises of that time, but it can hardly be said to cover the field as we regard it today.” Gardner S. Williams.
