Excerpt from A Treatise on Roads and Pavements The object of this book is to give a discussion from the point of view of an engineer of the principles involved in the construction of country roads and of city pavements. The attempt has been made to show that the science of road making and maintenance is based upon well-established elementary principles, and that the art depends upon correct reasoning from the principles rather than in attempting to follow rules or methods of construction. In some cases practical experience has not yet determined the best method of procedure, and in these cases the conflicting views with the reasons for each are fully stated. Considerable space has been given to the economics and location of country roads and to the construction and maintenance of earth roads, since such roads constitute more than ninety-five percent of the mileage of the public highways and are greatly in need of careful consideration. It is frequently claimed by engineers that the public would be benefited by placing the care of the roads in the hands of engineers; but there is no evidence that any considerable number of engineers comprehend either the principles of road making necessary for the improvement and maintenance of our country roads, or the economic limitations and political difficulties of the problem. The first four chapters of this book are offered as a contribution to this phase of the good-road problem. The remainder of the book, the portion that considers roads having permanently hard surfaces, which may not unfittingly be said to relate to urban and suburban roads, is based chiefly upon American experience, because the principles of road making worked out in this country are probably best suited to American conditions, and also because in most particulars American roads and pavements are superior to any other in the world.

Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Roads, Streets, and Pavements In the preparation of the following pages a few leading objects have been kept in view by the author. First. To give, within the compass of one small volume, such descriptions of the various methods of locating country roads, and of constructing the road and street coverings in more or less common use at the present day, as will render the essential details of those methods, as well as certain improvements thereon of which many of them are believed to be susceptible, familiar to any intelligent non-professional reader. Second. To make such practical suggestions with respect to the selection and application of materials, more especially those, with the properties and uses of which builders are presumed to be the least acquainted, as seem needful in order to develop their greatest practical worth, and realize their greatest endurance. Third. To institute a just and discriminating comparison of the respective merits of the several street pavements now competing for popular recognition and favor, under the varying conditions of traffic, climate, and locality, to which they are commonly subjected.
