David Watson Taylor (1864-1940), naval architect and engineer, made
a very impressing career in the US Navy. He developed the first
experimental ship model basin for the United States and became the
Navy's chief constructor during WWI. His books about the building
and operation of ships contain the most important scientific
findings and leading ideas in the field of early 20th century naval
engineering. The intention of this work is to treat in a consistent
and connected manner, for the use of students, the theory of
resistance and propulsion of vessels and to give methods, rules and
formulae which may be applied in practice. Reprint of the original
edition from 1910
