Hints for the Solution of Problems in the Third Edition of Solid Geometry
By Percival Frost
Published 1887 by W. Metcalfe and Son, Cambridge

An original 1887 printing of Hints for the Solution of Problems in the Third Edition of Solid Geometry by Percival Frost, the respected 19th century mathematician and educator. This scarce Cambridge printed volume offers worked guidance and problem solving insight intended to accompany Frosts solid geometry text, reflecting the rigor of Victorian mathematical instruction.

Bound in red leather like boards, the book presents an attractive antique appearance with clear signs of age and academic use. The binding and spine remain intact, holding firmly. There is noticeable surface wear consistent with its 19th century origin, including heavy chipping throughout as the pages are brittle with age, edge wear, and general aging to the covers. Interior pages show expected age toning. Overall condition is fair for its age, retaining structural integrity while displaying authentic antique character.

A desirable addition for collectors of 19th century mathematical works, Cambridge imprints, or historical academic texts.
