James Watt is a biography written by Andrew Carnegie about the life and achievements of the Scottish inventor James Watt. The book begins with Watt's early life and education, including his apprenticeship as a mathematical instrument maker. It then explores his work as an inventor, including his development of the steam engine and improvements to the Newcomen engine. The book also delves into Watt's personal life, including his marriage to his cousin, his friendships with other prominent scientists and inventors of the time, and his political and social views. Carnegie's biography provides a detailed and engaging account of Watt's contributions to science and industry, as well as his impact on the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
