(2.00 om Albert B. Church, 31. A., Professor of Mathe- matics in the l\ S. Military Academy, West Point: DEAB Snt: I have examined your work with great interest and pleasure. The detailed explanations of the elementary principles of this useful branch of mathe- matics are bo lucid, and the illustrations so beaftiful and correctly drawn, that, with this book in his hand, I do not that any pupil familiar with the elements of Geometry can find difficulty in acquiring a knowledge of the funda- mental principles of Descriptive Geometry. The work does you great credit. The paper, type and plates are in the finest style of the arte, and the book altogether has been pronounced equal, if not superior, to any English, French or American work on the subject. One extra copy for their own use will be given to those who order six or more copies.
