Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Construction Management of Small Gasworks The following pages are dedicated to my friends who come under the description of small gasworks managers as therein defined. They do not represent any attempt to add to the number of instruction books already available for the guidance of students or beginners. The object in view is to supply interesting matter for those actually in practice, who have not only had some training, but also more or less practical experience. The manager of a small gasworks frequently finds that he is one by himself. Even in this country there are out-of-the-way places where, for all practical purposes, one is as isolated as if he were out in the colonies, and men in such a position are usually found to be keenly interested in questions relating to the progress and advancement of the industry, and glad of an opportunity of discussing matters such as those to which attention is directed. They not only follow up modern advancements, but are quick to apply such as are suited to their limited circumstances; and it would be easy to name small gasworks that are in no way behind larger ones, so far as careful and intelligent management is concerned. Having these points in mind, I venture to hope that the following pages will receive a kindly and not hypercritical reception, as an endeavour to interest and assist the small gas manager.
