Not sure if these are exactly the same, but look at this link to TEE publishing.

Tony,

If you are happy with an electronic version, look here.

Just been ordering something unrelated on Amazon.co.uk

Out of idle curiosity I typed Percival Marshall into their search box, and found about 20 pages of items listed, do not know if they are all relevant to this thread though.

Recently a copy of Model Steam Turbines, How to Design and Build Them, 3rd edition, by H.H. Harrison, Model Engineer Series No 23, (Price 9D. net) was donated to the Friends of Vancouver Comm Library. It was published by Percival Marshall & Co in 1904 (?). There is a picture of a piece of machinery on the front cover that I have not been able to find or identify. It has a label from Pender Stationary & Book Store, Vancouver, B.C. on the back cover. It is a small, stapled softcover with tanned pgs (due to age) & slightly worn covers – no other major faults. I hope to list it on Amazon when I am able to verify the publication date. I would appreciate any information. Thanks. Maureena

Neil,

Thanks for encouraging me to look thru the book. In the edition we have, the Reverend Bredin Naylor's Model Steam Turbine is repeated on page 41, figure 43. Thanks again, Maureena

Tony, Many of these books were first published during the early years of the "Model Engineer and electrician" magazine that is to say from 1898 to 1910. They were intended to give instruction to early amateur experimentalists and hobbyist's. Many of the titles cover electrical subjects which were very popular at that time. Lists of available titles were regularly published in the magazine for many years at prices which we would find quaint, sixpence (two and a half pence) being typical !!! Percival Marshall the editor at the time commisioned many of the books himself from experts of the day and even offered prizes of a Guinea (twenty one shillings or one pound five pence) for suggestions for new titles during 1904 and maybe later. The books continued to be published for many years even though some had become outdated. Many of them contained material which had been previously published in "Model Engineer and electrician" and they are a facinating glimse into times gone. Subjects like high voltage machines and "make your own 200 volt D.C. generating plant" would be frowned upon now and things like DIY X-ray machines and experiments with radium would have our modern H&S inspectors in a dead faint !!!!!
