Excerpt from Practical River and Canal Engineering: With Frontispiece, Maps, 12 Plates, and 89 Other Illustrations
Os late years the attention Of engineers has been called to the permanent improvement Of water-courses as an economical medium for the transport Of heavy goods between industrial centres.
It has been proved that a river, though presenting serious Obstacles to navigation, may, by a judicious system Of regulation, be improved SO as to permit Of an extensive traffic being carried on at a much lower cost than the construction Of a canal or railway.

Excerpt from Practical River and Canal Engineering: With Frontispiece, Maps, 12 Plates, and 89 Other Illustrations
The importance of inland water-ways has enormously increased with the growing difficulty of transport, and the whole subject of River and Canal Engineering has become of vital interest. It is a subject which in the past has received scant attention from the practical standpoint; and the author of this present handbook seeks to explain the principles underlying the successful treatment of such work, and then to state concisely and clearly well-ascertained facts free from unnecessary data as to dimensions, costs, etc., which vary greatly in different districts and under different circumstances. The emphasis is therefore laid upon root principles rather than historic and economic details, and the author has drawn upon a wide experience in this country and abroad in dealing with the practical parts of the subject. For theoretical considerations the reader is referred to the classic work of Professor Rankine, "A Manual of Civil Engineering."
