About the book >.>.> James Watt was granted his first patent on a steam engine in 1769, but he ran into financial difficulties in trying to exploit it. Fortuna…tely, he was to find a solid businessman-Matthew Boulton-to handle the finances and marketing. In 1775, the firm of Boul-ton & Watt was established and ob-tained a twenty-five-year extension of Watt's patent. Watt's inventive genius and Boulton's keen eve for new mar-kets and applications made a successful combination, and their engines were a prime power source for the first In-dustrial Revolution. The company's papers, and the per-sonal papers of the founders, are pre-served in Birmingham, England, and are a unique source of information and insight regarding the emergence of the modern technological era. The most significant and revealing of these papers will be systematically edited and published in a series of volumes, of which this is the first. Some eight years of research have already been invested in this mammoth project, and the rewards should be substantial for historia.
