cious mechanical gossip as this little book of Mr.
Bernan.... For six months or more every year, we must depend much
more on the resources of science and the practical arts for our
health and comfort, than on the natural climate: in short, we
must create our own climate. To help us to the means of doing
this appears to be one of the objects of these little volumes, in
which, as we have shown, are collected a multitude of expedients
of all times and nations, collected with research, selected with
judgment, and skilfully arranged and described. The interest
with which one reads is sustained and continuous, and you devour
a two-volume inventory of stoves, grates, and ovens, with the
voracity of a parish school-boy, and then--ask for more."--_The
Athenaeum_.
