Sm. 8vo. viii, 390, 8, [2] pp. Original blind- and gilt-stamped maroon cloth; rubbed, joint loose. Good. "The early chapters relate to the history of a very important branch of British industry that of Shipbuilding. A later chapter, kindly prepared by Sir Edward J. Harland, of Belfast, relates to the origin and progress of shipbuilding in Ireland . . . I have also endeavoured to give as accurate an account as possible of the Invention of the Steam-printing Press, and its application to the production of Newspapers and Books." from the preface.
