Oliver Evans revolutionized the design,
construction and operation of
flour mills in early America.
Through the use of
water power and automation,
his mills were able to process
more grain into flour using less labor.
All 25 full page plates are present, two fold out.
They include mechanical details
and floorplans of ideal mills.
Numbered in two groups, 12 and 13.
The final plate in the second
group is misnumbered as 14.
Missing the free end papers front and rear.
Ends with the final plate,
therefore, missing any concluding
blank leaves at the rear.
The edges of the covers are worn.
The external spine head and hinges have been
"repaired" with "invisible" tape
to help hold the covers on.
The inside rear gutter has
a similar reinforcement.
