Conservation of Water by Storage, written by George Fillmore Swain and published in 1915, is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of water storage for the purpose of conservation. The book delves into the importance of water conservation, the history of water storage, the various types of storage structures, and the design and construction of water storage facilities.Swain discusses the benefits of water storage, including its ability to regulate water supply during droughts and floods, its use in irrigation, and its role in hydroelectric power generation. He also covers the challenges of water storage, such as the potential for water loss due to evaporation and seepage, and the need for proper maintenance and management of storage facilities.The book includes detailed descriptions and illustrations of various types of storage structures, including reservoirs, tanks, and cisterns. Swain discusses the factors that must be considered in the design and construction of these structures, such as site selection, soil conditions, and the type of material used.Throughout the book, Swain emphasizes the importance of proper planning and management in water storage. He provides practical advice on the operation and maintenance of storage facilities, as well as strategies for the conservation of water resources.Overall, Conservation of Water by Storage is a valuable resource for anyone interested in water conservation and the design and construction of water storage facilities. Its timeless insights and practical advice continue to be relevant today, over a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
