Abstract
TEMPLETON's “Mechanic's Workshop Companion” is a work familiar to most mechanics and draughtsmen, having been considered for the last quarter of a century a useful book of reference by all connected with the management of engineering workshops and kindred trades. Books of this description require revising very often, and considering the enormous development of the mechanical sciences during the last few years no one will wonder on hearing that even “Templeton” has to be modernised to keep pace with the times.
The Modernised “Templeton” or, “The Practical Mechanic's Companion.”
By William Templeton. Revised and Modernised by Walter S. Hutton, C.E. (London: Crosby Lockwood and Co., 1886.)
