Excerpt from A Text-Book Plane Surveying

Particular attention is called to the systematic arrangement of computations in Chapter VI. To the article on the slide rule; to the discussion of practical surveying methods in Book II. To the full treatment of coordinates; to the large number of examples; and to the use of the terms latitude difference and longitude difference for the old terms latitude and departure.

The whole general scheme of terms is thought to be much more logical than that heretofore in use; and in this I have the support of Professors Merriman and Brooks, who have adopted practically the same nomenclature in their Hand book for Surveyors, recently issued.
