American inventions and inventors
A school reader on inventions and their makers, written by William A. Mowry and Arthur M. Mowry and issued by Silver, Burdett in New York and Boston in 1900 for American classroom use. Pen-and-ink vignettes and tonal halftones show steamships at sea, horse-drawn buggies on country roads, hay carts, and machine parts, offering loose line textures and open-bottomed spot scenes.
