Three 1910 lectures on cartography and surveying by Edward Ayearst Reeves, map curator and instructor at the Royal Geographical Society in London, printed for surveyors and students of map construction. Halftone and line plates show astrolabes, theodolites, plane tables, graduated circles and dense stereographic grids, giving designers precise instrument diagrams, engraved scale rings and radial star-chart dials.
