Journal, the London Times, illustrated Neps
Punch, the London American Magazine, andother
periodicals, with newspaper reports letters, reports
of mechanics institutes, Sc. The work Is inter
spersed with numerous fine photographic plates Of
several of the contributions of American Skill nclu-
ding the clipper yacht America, Colts revolvers,
