Excerpt from Text-Book of Theoretical Naval Architecture
A special feature of the book is the large number of examples given in the text and at the ends of the chapters. By means of these examples, the student is able to test his grasp of the principles and processes given in the text. It is hoped that these examples, many of which have been taken from actual drawing office calculations, will form a valuable feature of the book.
Particulars are given throughout the work and on page 292 as to the books that should be consulted for fuller treatment 'of the subjects dealt with.
