Excerpt from Practical Descriptive Geometry The first edition of this book, published in 1912, represented the author's views on the presentation of Descriptive Geometry, so as to arouse the student's interest in the subject without sacrificing rigorous training in the principles.

A more logical sequence for certain portions of the text. The notation of points and planes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
