Synopsis
Excerpt from Theoretical and Practical Graphics
Since the pages were electrotyped an instrument of unusual convenience and merit has been placed on the market, a compass whose legs remain parallel during the process of opening, and which is therefore ready for use at all angles. Its importance justifies a reference to it here, since it cannot conveniently be incorporated under its proper heading in the text.
The unity and continuity of the course here offered is not affected by the lack of consecutiveness in the chapters, its issue in present shape having been contemplated at the time of writing, although it originally appeared in the author's larger work - Theoretical and Practical Graphics - ih close correla tion with a course on the Descriptive Geometry of Monge (first Angle Method) and its applications in Shadows, Perspective, Trihedrals and Spherical Projections.
