Bird & Joe

The book I have is "Direct Current Machinery" by Royce G. Kloeffler, Jesse Brenneman, and Russel Kerchner.

It was first published in 1934 and thus has lots of info on the "then current" technology for generators.

The book had more printing and the one I have was printed in 1947 for an Electrical Engineering class at Cornell, taken by my father.

I looked in my electric machinery text book for 1970 (UMass) and it didn't have lots of info about the auto generators in the 1920's\30's.

Good reason to keep old books !
