“Machinery’s Handbook, since the publication of its first edition in 1914, has continually increased in popularity throughout the world.  It is now used extensively as a work reference in all countries where machines or other mechanical products are manufactured.  The aim of the publishers is to make each new edition of greater practical value than the preceding one.  This has been accomplished by revising the Handbook as frequently as is practicable for a voluminous work which must necessarily by printed in large editions to meet the constant demand for it both here and abroad.”
