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.
