In 1771, Father Charles Bossut (1730-1814) published an elementary treatise on hydrodynamics. Shortly afterwards, Turgot asked him to teach this new science, which was still difficult to use. Bossut therefore made new experiments that led, 15 years later, to the fundamental work presented here.
Beautiful work, well complete with all its boards.
