The book ""Prodromus Of A Practical Treatise On The Mathematical Arts: Containing Directions For Surveying And Engineering"" was written by Amos Eaton and published in 1838. The book is a comprehensive guide to surveying and engineering, providing detailed instructions and practical tips for those working in these fields. The author covers a wide range of topics, including the use of instruments such as the theodolite and the chain, the measurement of angles and distances, the calculation of areas and volumes, and the construction of maps and plans. The book also includes information on the practical application of these skills in various fields, such as road building, bridge construction, and land surveying. With its clear and concise explanations, this book was a valuable resource for engineers, surveyors, and anyone involved in the mathematical arts in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
