Franz Hausmann´s Letters to His Children, 1841-1856, Franz Hausmann reminisces with justifiable contentment on the life he´s carved out for himself in nineteenth-century Bavaria. By the time he is writing to his children, he has already served honorably in the infantry-surviving the disastrous 1812 march into Russia as part of Napoleon´s Grande Armée-obtained a university degree in government, and earned universal respect in his current career as an increasingly important royal counselor. A Priceless Legacy offers a collection of his poignant letters showing how Franz devoted all his spare energy to educating his eleven children-sending them to the best schools he can afford, penning words of advice to be kept as reference, and always encouraging them to become self-reliant, honorable, and devout members of society. Mostly leaving the girls to his wife´s care, Franz focuses on the boys. They cause him many headaches and heartaches, but he calmly-and sternly-tries to steer them in the right direction. Franz´s great-granddaughter Cynthia Joy Hausmann has translated these letters and provided useful background comments. After Franz´s death in 1856, much of Europe went through a period of political and economic upheaval, causing half of Franz´s children to seek their fortune in the United States, where their descendants still exemplify Franz´s wise legacy. Portrait of Franz Hausmann as a civilian official, ca. 1830. He still proudly displays the red ribbon and white cross of the French Legion of Honor, which Napoleon awarded him in 1812, gebundene Ausgabe, 30.12.2014.

Telegraph Engineering - A Manual for Practicing Telegraph Engineers and Engineering Students
EN NW
ISBN: 9780259629627 bzw. 0259629626, in Englisch, Forgotten Books, neu.
Lieferung aus: Deutschland, Free shipping.
Telegraph Engineering: This book is intended for electrical engineering students and as a reference book for practicing telegraph and telephone engineers and for others engaged in the arts of electrical communication. It presents in a logical manner the subject of modern overland and submarine telegraphy from an engineering viewpoint, its theoretical and practical aspects being correlated. No attempt is made to describe all telegraphic devices and to explain their operation, but rather to consider one or more representative types for the accomplishment of the various desired objects, thus permitting a presentation of the subject matter in proper perspective. The book is the outgrowth of the course in Telegraph Engineering given by the author for a number of years at the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn.A knowledge of elementary electricity and magnetism is presupposed. For understanding the mathematical demonstrations a knowledge of algebra will in many cases suffice, but in other cases, appearing toward the latter part of the book, the calculus is a necessary adjunct, the study of which frequently precedes or accompanies the vocational studies of students and progressive telegraph workers. That the use of higher mathematics is important in the thorough pursuit of telegraph and telephone transmission studies is evident from an inspection of the writings of Lord Kelvin, Heaviside, Kennelly, Pupin, Campbell, Malcolm and others. Englisch, Ebook.
