This is a vintage manual on basic geometrical drawing, designed for use in high schools, academies, and engineering schools. Comprehensive and beginner-friendly, this volume is ideal for students of engineering and architecture, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Purely Geometrical or Rational Theory of Projections", "Of the Relations of Lines to their Projections", "Physical Theory of Projections", "Conventional Mode of Representing the Two Planes of Projection", "Notation", "Of the use of the Method of Projections", "Projection of Straight Lines", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing "A Manual of Elementary Geometrical Drawing Involving Three Dimensions" now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on technical drawing and drafting.
