This book is an extensive guide on drawing, designed for both the apprentice and architect. It moves beyond the introductory steps of line drawing and basic geometry into more detailed subjects such as projections, shade and shadow, and mechanical drawing, including structural engineering concepts such as beams, columns, and trusses. Along with these technical skills, it also covers the materials used in construction and engineering such as metals, woods, masonry, and concrete. These subjects are presented with an emphasis on practical application, with many cited examples drawn from classic architecture and the industrial revolution. This book would be useful to anyone wishing to learn more about drawing, whether for artistic or practical purposes.
