OverviewExcerpt from The Fireman's Guide: A Handbook on the Care of Boilers, by Teknologforeningen T. I., Stockholm, Translated From the Third Edition, and Revised Having noticed that boiler explosions too frequently occur through neglect or incompetency of the attendant, the translator has, with a view to lessen the number of such occurrences, placed this little book before the public; and he trusts that firemen, engineers and even boiler-owners may find in it much that may be of service to them. The book was originally written and published in Sweden by a society of experienced engineers (Teknologforeningen T. I., Stockholm) urging that the best way to prevent accident and afford a saving of fuel was to give strict regulations as to how a boiler should be fired and managed. It was favorably received by the public and has passed through several editions. The book is in two parts, the first of which contains, more extensively, rules and directions for the general care of boilers; the second a summary of regulations.
