Neil Arnott's 1855 London treatise on smokeless grates, chimney valves, and room ventilation, published by Longman for engineers, builders, and sanitary reformers. The plates are line-engraved sectional diagrams of fireplaces, flues, and air currents, with hatched brickwork, lettered reference keys, valves and stoves, and dotted arrows tracing draughts — usable as technical linework, cutaway conventions, and airflow notation.
