Download or read book Iron and Steel Classic Reprint written by J. H. Stansbie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Iron and Steel Iron is the most important of all the metals that have been pressed into the service of man, which is due, not only to its great abundance in Nature, but also to its unique properties. The result of this is that no one metal has received so much attention from both practical men and scientists, as is shown by the fact that some of the most prominent men in Europe and America are investigating the many chemical and physical properties of the metal and its application to the requirements of civilisation. Thus an enormous mass of information has accumulated, and is to be found in original papers and books. Portions of the subject are still in their youth and are growing vigorously, so that the teacher of to-day must become the student of to-morrow. On the other hand, parts of it are so old that their origin is lost in the mists of time, and dates back to the first glimmerings of that intelligence which now enables man to utilise to the fullest extent the valuable properties of the metal.

Download or read book Fifty Years of Iron and Steel Classic Reprint written by Joseph Green Butler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Years of Iron and Steel O have lived during a period of over sixty years of T the world's greatest accomplishment and to have been an eye-witness especially of the great development in this country's iron and steel industry, should be almost glory enough. To have been, during this period, an active factor in this constructive work, at all times taking a leading part in all of the industry's activities, makes the author of this paper a unique figure among American men of affairs - men who have done things. To have been an eye-witness of iron and steel development from the conversion of the first barrel of Lake Superior ore to a period when over sixty million tons come down the Lakes and other millions are smelted in the Upper Lake region, is something few have experienced. To have been connected with the pig iron industry when only six hundred thousand tons were made a year and be still connected with it when nearly forty million tons have been produced in this same period, is an honor that probably no one else can claim.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Hoops of Steel The soft, muffling dusk settled slowly downward from the darkening blue sky and little by little smothered the weird gleam that rose from the gray-white plain. Away toward the east a range of mountains gloomed faintly, rimming the distance. Another towered against the western horizon. Cactus clumps and bunches of mesquite and greasewood blotted the whitely gleaming earth. In and out among these dark spots a man was slowly riding. Now and then he leaned forward and looked keenly through the growing darkness as though searching for some familiar landmark. The horse lagged across the heavy sand, with drooping head and ears. The rider patted its neck with a buckskin gloved hand and spoke cheerily to the tired animal: "Hot and tired, ain't you, old fellow? You want your supper and a big drink of water. Well, you oughtn't to have wandered off the road while I was asleep. Now, I sure reckon we've got to bunk on a sand heap to-night and wait till daylight to find out where we are."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Authentic History of the United States Steel Corporation It is not the intention of the author of this History of the United States Steel Corporation to compile a work of reference for the steel man. Such a task must properly be left to the trade expert. His object merely is to narrate, in as interesting a form as he is able, the principal events leading up to the incorporation of the mighty company, to tell its objects and its policies and the results therefrom on labor, the corporation itself and industry generally. The writer believes that these events contain a consider able amount oi human interest, and it is in this form that he has endeavored to relate them. If he succeeds in bring ing home to the steel stockholder, to the man in the street, what the Steel Corporation has stood for, what it still stands for, his labor will not have been in vain.

Download or read book The Manufacture and Properties Iron and Steel Classic Reprint written by Harry Huse Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manufacture and Properties Iron and Steel Some readers might prefer that less space should be devoted to theoretical matter and more to descriptions of apparatus, but in my Opinion the place for such information is in the trade periodicals. It takes so long to print a book that drawings are antiquated when the issue appears, but the fundamental principles of metallurgy remain the same. A book issued in England refers courteously to the former edition of this work, but states that little information is given concerning the practical details of operation. That 'same book sets forth that an open-hearth furnace is charged by putting the pig-iron in first; that in a. Twenty-five-ton furnace not over nine men can be employed, even when there are doors on both sides, and that with rapid work it takes two hours to charge a heat. Now those figures are true for the district with which that writer was familiar, but in America the pig-iron is put in last, while at Steel ton on a furnace of the size mentioned we use twice the number of men and with good scrap finish the work by charging, by hand labor only, in a period ranging from thirty minutes down to eleven minutes. Of equal value is much of the ao-called practical infor mation given in metallurgical treatises. It only remains to thank many friends, both at home and abroad, for aiding in this work which has been accomplished in the intervals of what I trust is not otherwise an entirely idle life.

Download or read book The Romance of Steel written by Herbert N. Casson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Steel: The Story of a Thousand Millionaires This book is the first popular history of our greatest American industry. The wonderful story of steel is here told in such a way that those who have no technical knowledge of steel-making may enjoy and appreciate the miracles that have been accomplished. First, it is a story of the electric expansion of a business from bankruptcy to billions. It is an American story of self-help - of the unprivileged men who climbed from poverty to the commercial supremacy of the world. And also it is a biography of that most useful of all metals - the structural metal of modern civilisation. Now that the iron and steel business has passed into the hands of more than sixty thousand stockholders, there has come a demand for a popular book on the subject, which shall be not only picturesque, but accurate and instructive as well. Therefore, while I have written these pages after the manner of fiction, the facts have been gathered from the highest authorities. Fully nine-tenths of the material has been obtained at first hand, either from the Steel Kings themselves or from original documents. The book is, in fact, the result of a two-years' study of the American iron and steel business, made on the spot, and with the assistance of many experts. I take this opportunity to express my thanks to the following gentlemen for their courtesy and friendly co-operation: - Andrew Carnegie, H. C. Prick, John Fritz, Charles M. Schwab, Elbert H.
