History References in ASME
Seventy-Seven Year Index 1880-1956 (1957), pp. 58, 248

Many, but by no means all, historical articles are listed in this part of the Index. Notice, for example, the historical entry under the subject heading HOISTING MACHINERY. Adams' "Early Hydraulic-Turbine History" and Babcock's "Substitutes for Steam" Reference Notes [23] and [24] will be found under appropriate subject headings.
