Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contributions From the Museum of History and Technology: Papers 69-72, on Technology His great opportunity came in 1838 when he returned to railroad work in Baltimore and was appointed master mechanic of the Baltimore and Susquehanna Railroad. The prestige of his new position possibly was more apparent than real, for the Baltimore and Susquehanna was a threadbare little company whose serpentine road wound a dis tance of 58 miles between Baltimore, Maryland, and York, Pennsylvania. It had 80 bridges, too many curves, and too few locomotives or cars. The novice master mechanic soon was put to the test of keeping in working order the road's 10 engines, which could not have been more poorly adapted to the needs of the company. Three were British made. The rest were built on patterns similar to the British engines by the Locks and Canals machine Shop of Lowell, Massachusetts. All of the engines proved too light for steep grades and too rigid to negotiate the road's sharp curves. Fortunately, the company had a fairly well-equipped repair terminal in Baltimore, adjacent to the present Mt. Royal Station, known as the Bolton shops. Millholland there began remodel ing the road's motive power as fast as funds permitted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rich with archival detail and compelling characters, Life on Display uses the history of biological exhibitions to analyze museums’ shifting roles in twentieth-century American science and society. Karen A. Rader and Victoria E. M. Cain chronicle profound changes in these exhibitions—and the institutions that housed them—between 1910 and 1990, ultimately offering new perspectives on the history of museums, science, and science education. Rader and Cain explain why science and natural history museums began to welcome new audiences between the 1900s and the 1920s and chronicle the turmoil that resulted from the introduction of new kinds of biological displays. They describe how these displays of life changed dramatically once again in the 1930s and 1940s, as museums negotiated changing, often conflicting interests of scientists, educators, and visitors. The authors then reveal how museum staffs, facing intense public and scientific scrutiny, experimented with wildly different definitions of life science and life science education from the 1950s through the 1980s. The book concludes with a discussion of the influence that corporate sponsorship and blockbuster economics wielded over science and natural history museums in the century’s last decades. A vivid, entertaining study of the ways science and natural history museums shaped and were shaped by understandings of science and public education in the twentieth-century United States, Life on Display will appeal to historians, sociologists, and ethnographers of American science and culture, as well as museum practitioners and general readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work presents a view of the history of American railroads in the nineteenth century from a somewhat different perspective. The maturation of the railroad is traced through an exposition of the railroad technology that was developed and applied during the period. Throughout the nineteenth century, a symbiotic relationship existed between railroading and technology, each dependent upon the state and progress of the other to a large degree. A great deal of new technology was created for the railroad, and the railroad, in turn, applied new technology as it became available. Volume four is about bridges and tunnels, and signals. An exposition of the various types of bridges, their foundations, and the materials of which they were made is included. Tunnels and marine railroad operations are treated also. The development of signal systems is an area that has been overlooked or neglected in the general literature but is fully covered here. The text of this volume is accompanied by 145 illustrations and accurate drawings of the equipment and appliances, many of which have not been published before outside of old technical journals. Anthony J. Bianculli is a mechanical engineer with extensive and varied experience in a Fortune 500 company.
