Canada
This material belonged to a late member of the Canadian armed forces who served at least part of his career in Prince Edward Island. Ce matériel appartenait à un membre des forces armées canadiennes qui a été stationné à l'île du Prince Édouard.
Function
According to the preface of the book, the author's intention is " to fill a gap in aeronautical instruction books. A handbook containing a simple explanation of the construction and functioning of the more important engine components and accessories." The author adds: " An attempt has therefore been made to combine a convenient-size volume and a short explanation of the theory of the four-stroke cycle as applied to aero engines, together with an explanation of the more important points concerning engine components, carburettors, magnetos, superchargers, etc. " Selon l'avant-propos du livre, l'intention de l'auteur était de remplir un vide dans les livres d'instruction aéronautique. Un livre qui contient une explication simple de la construction et le fonctionnement des composantes de moteurs les plus importants. L'auteur rajoute aussi que le but du livre est d'avoir un mélange d'un livre compacte avec une brève explication de la théorie du cycle à quatre temps appliquées aux moteurs d'avion, ainsi qu'une explication des points les plus importants concernant les composants du moteur, les carburateurs, les magnétos, les compresseurs, etc.
Technical
The book itself does not hold much technical significance. However, its importance lies in the fact it belonged first-hand to someone who served in the Canadian armed forces. Le livre en tant que tel n'a pas d'importance technique. Cela dit, son importance est dans le fait qu'il appartenait de première main à quelqu'un qui était dans les Forces armées canadiennes.
