A comprehensive technical treatise by T. W. Fox on the mechanics of power-loom weaving, in its fifth edition (1922, first published 1894). It covers healds, shedding by tappets, dobbies and Jacquards, figuring harnesses, card-cutting and lacing, lappet shedding, picking, multiple box motions, swivel and gauze weaving, reeds, brakes, let-off and take-up motions, temples, and the layout of weaving sheds. The text is heavily illustrated with mechanical line diagrams; weaving drafts and tie-ups appear on only a few pages.
