1847 'SIR R. KANE ON WATER WHEELS. 1 vol., 4to, with Illustrative Plates, 7s. 6d.
ON HORIZONTAL WATER WHEELS , especially Turbines, or Whirl Wheels - their History, Mode, and Construction. By Moritz Ruhlman; Translated by Sir R. Kane.
The work before us comes opportunely, elucidating the construction of a most economical water engine, hitherto but little known in this country. The name of Sir R. Kane, as the editor and translator of a treatise relating to mechanical science, is sufficient proof that the work has passed an ordeal which warrants its being adopted as a standard guide by the mechanics of the united kingdom, for those who's use it is specially designed.— Irish Farmers' Gazette.
