Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual for Practical Surveyors: Containing Methods Indispensably Necessary for Actual Field Operations
The want of a work on Practical Survey ing has been long felt, and is generally ad knowledged. The numerous publications on surveying would seem to preclude the neces sity of anything new. But upon examina tion we find the wants of the student have been consulted, rather than those of the prac tical man. Indeed, many of the publications in general use appear to have been written by those who were engaged in the instruction of youth, and who were unacquainted with the practical part of surveying, excepting perhaps so far as may have been requisite for the information of the classes under their direction.
