Developed in the late 1850s, the traction engine revolutionized the agriculture industry. James H. Maggard, an authority on steam power, wrote The Traction Engine for the ¿rough and tumble engineers¿ tasked with operating these machines in the field. That was not an altogether easy task, even for a seasoned professional. Breakdowns, boiler explosions, and injury could result, if one was inattentive. This reprint of the 1900 edition of the book features expanded chapters on the subject of threshing machines and the new internal combustion engine models.

Traction engines steam engines to haul loads on the roads developed in the mid 1860s and were usually dirty, noisy and somewhat crude to handle. This book brings together much information about these engines, from the earliest to the latest, about how they worked and what they did. Attention is also given to the various derivatives of the traction engine the humble portable, the well-known steam roller, the steam tractor, majestic road locomotive, ploughing engine and, last but not least, the King of the Road, the glorious and glittering showman's engine. The informative text is accompanied by illustrations that show something of the age in which traction engines worked and of the age when they became treasured historic relics. Engines appear at rallies and other events all over Great Britain and in many other countries. On these occasions they are visited and admired by thousands of people and are now part of our engineering heritage.

Excerpt from The Traction Engine, Its Use and Abuse: Including Gas and Gasoline Engines, With Special Chapters on Threshing Machines and How to Run a Threshing Rig If you have not read the preface on the preceding pages, turn back and read it. You will see that we have stated there that we will use no scientific terms, but plain everyday talk. It is presumed by us that-more young men wishing to become good engineers will read this little work than old engineers. We will, therefore, be all the more plain, and say as little as possi ble that will tend to confuse the learner, and what we do say will be said in the same language that we would use if we were in the field instructing you how to handle your engine. SO if the more experienced engineer thinks we might have gone further in some certain points, he will please remember that by so doing we might confuse the less experienced, and thereby cover Up the very point we tried to make. And yet it is not to be supposed that we will endeavor to make an engineer out of a man who never saw an engine. We will, however, insert a descrip tion of a traction engine and cuts of some of its parts; not to teach you how to build an engine, but rather how.
