The Relative Merits Of Simple And Compound Engines As Applied To Ships Of War is a book written by Niel McDougall in 1875. The book explores the advantages and disadvantages of simple and compound engines in the context of their application to ships of war. McDougall provides a detailed analysis of the two types of engines, comparing their efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. He also discusses the various factors that need to be considered when choosing between the two types of engines, such as the size and type of the ship, the intended use of the vessel, and the available resources. The book is a valuable resource for naval engineers, shipbuilders, and anyone interested in the history of naval technology.
