This review is from: Ericsson's caloric engine. Articles descriptive of the caloric ship Ericsson, and of her trial excursion of January 12th, 1853; taken from the daily journals of the city of New York. (Paperback)

Un excellent petit livre pour les passionnés des moteurs à air chaud.
Les journalistes du milieu du 19ième siècle témoignent de cette innovation technique qu'est le moteur Ericsson. Les descriptions techniques et esthétiques sont très précises. On se surprend à s'imaginer à réparer un piston démontable ou à visiter les cabines et autres recoins du navire.
Bon voyage.
