The theory and practice of surveying. Designed for the use of surveyors and engineers generally, but especially for the use of students in engineering
A technical textbook on surveying by J. B. Johnson, published by John Wiley & Sons in New York in 1886 for working surveyors, engineers, and engineering students. The 128 plates are line diagrams: geodetic curves and triangulation nets lettered A–P, protractor and vernier scales with engraved graduations, traverse polygons and angle notations — usable as spare geometric linework and instrument detail.
