Excerpt from The Science of Road Making: Construction and Maintenance of Roads The science of roadmaking was revised by Mr. Clemens Herschel in 1877, and the paper of Mr. Edward P. North was presented to the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1879. To the one was awarded the First Prize of the State Board of Agriculture of Massachusetts, and to the other the Norman Gold Medal of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Though considerable advance in processes and machines has been made since these dates, these two papers still contain more condensed and valuable information on a subject now attracting wide-spread attention than any similar publication of which we have knowledge. Literature on the actual detail of road-making is scarce and fragmentary; and it is with the hope that these two otherwise practically inaccessible papers may prove profitable reading to engineers and others interested in road-making that they are now reprinted.
