This is an excellent book which in great detail describes Mr. John Stevens
(A colonel in the war for Independence) and the members of his family
spanning the period following the end of the American Civil War.
The book covers his & his family’s major contributions to America’s development of the first Railroad in the America, the original Twin-Screw Engine, steam Pistons, the first “Iron Clad”,
Ferry Boats, and other inventions too numerous to list. I highly recommend this book!… (altro)
