A  VOLUME  OF  ENGINEER 
ING  HISTORY. 

In  a  book  of  1000  pages,  entitled 
"  T he  Principal  Professional  Papers 
of  Dr.  J.  A.  L.  Waddell,"  there 
have  been  collected  a  large  number 
of  note-worthy  contributions  to  en 
gineering  literature,  comprising  the 
written  evidence  of  much  scientific 
research,  the  painstaking  record  of 
the 
structures  of  magnitude  and 
difficulties  encountered  in  their  con 
struction,  and  valuable  essays  upon 
the  progress  of  engineering  science 
and  art.

surprised  to  learn  from  these  papers

in  professional  work  and  how  forci 
bly  and  effectively  he  has  written  in 
the  cause  of  engineering  education. 
T h e re  are  here  presented  a  half

and  educators,  dealing  with  a  vari

uable  in  aiding  the  young  engineer 
to  acquire  that  kind  of  knowledge 
which  shall  be  of  practical  applica 
tion.  T he  other  papers  cover  a 
wide  range  of  engineering  practice^ 
including  railroad  location,  construc 
tion  and  management,  bridge  design 
and  repair,  foundations,  bridge  loads 
and  specifications.  T he  editor  has 
very  wisely 
the 
discussions  which 
addresses 
were  occasioned  by 
the  original 
publication,  and  it  is  worthy  of  note 
that  while  some  of  these  discussions 
took  place  a  decade  ago  or  m o r e ,. 
the  questions  with  which  they  deal 
are  still  alive,  and  Dr.  Waddell's 
advice  is  as  valuable  today  as  at  the 
earlier  date.

the  reward  of

making  history,  that  they  find  little 
time  for  presenting  the story  of  their

the 
historian  is  not  over  large.  W h a t 
ever  the  reason,  the  need  is  great, 
and  the advent  of  a book  like  this  one 
will bring pleasurable  gratification  to 
all engineers  whether  they  are practi
