Returned to print is this classic and important 19th century text by Peter Nicholson: The Mechanic's Companion. This, the 1850 edition, was the first edition to include the influential chapter on The Steam Engine. Nicholson paid homage to Joseph Moxon in updating Mechanick Exercises: Or, The Doctrine Of Handy-Works. His purpose was to bring the original 18th century text by Moxon to life for 19th century students and practitioners of the industrial arts. The Mechanic's Companion remained in print from 1832 through the beginning of the 20th century.
