context_page_description: John Weale was an English publisher of popular scientific, architectural, engineering and educational works.
context_section_description: Weale was on good terms with many men of science, and published cheap literature for technical education. His Rudimentary Series (over 130 works, usually selling at one shilling) and other educational series comprised standard works, both in classics and science. They were suggested initially by William Reid, and were continued after his death, first by James Sprent Virtue.
  Source: Lists at end of the publications. The series was later taken on by the publisher Crosby Lockwood, who added volumes while retaining the system of reference numbers (across editions).
  One of John Weale's earliest books published was Steam Navigation, Tredgold on the Steam Engine Appendix A which was edited and published under direction from Thomas Tredgold himself. Steam Navigation, Tredgold on the Steam Engine, Appendix A was printed by W. Hughes, King’s Head Court, Gough Square.
  Its value in August 1839 was twelve shillings.

caption: First Edition. Very good condition,   In the current possession and care of Capt. Mouck.  Was received from a very old friend, who received it from who at his time was a very old British captain for some work which was done on his boat,.  From the extensive research done, it has been proven to be original. The closest reference to another original would be in a museum in Ohio, and that book is in a sealed case with no one allowed to touch it. That book is in far worse condition then the one shown also it is Appendix B.
