Abstract
IT is curious to note the difference in the general appreciation of the submarine in England and in France. Here until recently these engines of destruction do not appear to have been taken seriously by our professional guides, and, so far as the public know, but little has been done to prove their value, whereas in France, not only are there many already belonging to the Navy, but public appreciation of their utility is such that engineers will have to make themselves familiar with their history and their present lines of development. A handy little book such as this at three francs is likely, therefore, to find a ready sale.
