SANITARY CONSTRUCTION IN BUILDING contains, in a form convenient for everyday use, a comprehensive digest of infor mation, contributed to BUILDING WORLD, one of the weekly journals it is my fortune to edit, and supplies concise information on the general principles and practice of the subject on which it treats. It may be said that the matter contained in this book consists substantially of articles written by Mr. H. Gilbert Whyatt, A.M.I.C.E., M.R.SAN.I., Borough Engineer of Grimsby.
