About this book
William Ford Stanley, himself an optician and maker of surveying and drawing instruments, wrote this guide to the tools used in the field by civil engineers and surveyors. Early chapters cover optics, magnetism, spirit-level tubes, graduation and clamp and tangent motions, so that later descriptions of whole instruments need not repeat them. For buyers, he adds simple tests of workmanship and the adjustments of one instrument in each class, including mining and subtense instruments.
H. T. Tallack revised this fourth edition, issued in London and New York in 1914.
