Excerpt from The Elements of Descriptive Geometry
Intersections, developments, etc., are usually included in the regular course in Mechanical Draw ing. It seems needless, therefore, to include them in this elementary text. If it is desirable to include more advanced work in the course of Descriptive Geometry, this book will form such a foundation that the student may readily interpret any higher treatise. H. C. B.
