Gas Engines and Launches. 
Their Principles, Types and Management. 
K. Grain. 182 pages. Price $1.25. 
Here is a pocket manual indispensable to every man 
who uses a motor-boat. It deals in simple untechnical 
fashion with the running of the marine gas engine, and 
with the difficulties that the marine gas engineer is likely 
to meet with. These engines are described, some pages 
are devoted to launches in general, with practical advice 
to the man who contemplates purchasing a power boat. 
The main feature of the book, however, is a clear descrip- 
tion of the difficulties met with in running a gas engine, 
their causes and how to remedy them. In this discussion 
all technicalities are avoided, and the author has boiled 
down a vast amount of practical knowledge into small 
space and into every-day language. The amateur power 
boat man needs this book, for it will save him much time 
and trouble, and probably not a little money.
