Recueil de mécanique relatif à l'agriculture et aux arts, et description des machines économiques
A French machinery compendium of 1802 by P.C. Person de Bérainville, with an English contributor John Wornham Penfold, printed in Paris by Ch. Pougens, offering engraved plates of economic machines for farming and the trades. The pictures are precise line engravings with lettered reference marks on each part, showing gears, wheels, levers and frames in clean cross-section and elevation, a useful model for diagrammatic technical drawing and labelled schematic layouts.
