P. Burgh, I agreed to write a short introduction to a new work he was about to write on Modern screw-propulsion. It was with some reluctance I acceded to his request; but, on consideration of the great pains and trouble that gentle man has bestowed on his work on Marine Engineering, collecting some of the best examples of modern marine engines, in having them illustrated in the most clear and correct manner, as well as combining in the body of the work numerous wood-cuts of details of construction peculiar to different makers, I felt sure the main importance of his publication would depend more on the excellence of its illustrations than the few remarks which I might have to offer on the subject. After all, the best and most useful information for an engineer, is that which relates to the different views and mode of construction carried out by the prominent manufacturing engineers, who have devoted the best part of their lives and labours in perfecting an especial branch of mechanical study. Those, therefore, who wish for information on the various forms and construction, of the screw-propeller, I would recommend rather to examine, and carefully to compare, the Drawings of the Screws in this work, and results of different vessels, more particularly those of the Admiralty, than to look for anything that is new in this introductory account of the history, various forms, and adaptations of the screw-propeller, which I have contributed to the present work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Screw Propeller: And Other Competing Instruments for Marine Propulsion Some thirty-two years ago, when engaged in putting forth the Manual of Marine Engineering, I could not find a single book on the Screw Propeller, or any text book containing such information on it as would enable a draughtsman to get out the leading dimensions, and much less to make a complete design of a screw suitable for any particular ship and conditions. At that time John Bourne's admirable book on the Screw Propeller was not only out of print, but out of date, and I fear no engineer could at any time have designed a screw which would give satisfactory results from what was contained in it. It was, however, many years after that I first saw his work, and my wonder then, as now, is that such a book was allowed to disappear, seeing how much of interest it contained. But perhaps the strongest comment on the knowledge of the screw propeller at that time is in the admission of the then engineer-in-chief of the British Navy, that he had settled the design of those for so very important a ship as the Iris, intended to be the fastest ship in the Navy, by copying that of hms. Himalaya, a ship built in 1854, with the result that the British Admiralty, with all its knowledge and opportunities, with all its records of tests and trials, perpetrated a blunder never equalled in the history of steam navigation, although in the mercantile marine there had been not a few mistakes. But even in modern times, notwithstanding the better knowledge and the aid of tank experiments, our best men do sometimes fail to achieve success, but the magnitude of the failure is inconsiderable compared with that of the Iris. In the Manual of Marine Engineering I attempted to supply the wants of designers by giving a rule or formula for each important dimension, generally based on scientific reasons, and always capable of giving results agreeable with the best and most successful practice.
