Excerpt from Turning and Boring: A Specialized Treatise for Machinists, Students in Industrial and Engineering Schools, and Apprentices, on Turning and Boring Methods, Including Modern Practice With Engine Lathes, Turret Lathes, Vertical and Horizontal Boring Machines
Readers of mechanical literature are familiar with machin ery's 25-cent Reference Books, of which one hundred and twenty-five different titles have been published during the past six years. Many subjects, however, cannot be adequately covered in all their phases in books of this size, and in response to a demand for more comprehensive and detailed treatments on the more important mechanical subjects, it has been deemed advisable to bring out a number of larger volumes, of which this is one. This work includes much of the material published in machinery's Reference Books Nos. 91, 92 and 95, together' with a great amount of additional information on modern boring and turning methods.
