Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Key to the Solar Compass, and Surveyor's Companion: Comprising All the Rules Necessary for Use in the Field
The author does' not presume that this treatise is without defects; he indulges the hope, however, that it will answer the purpose for which it is designed, until further experience shall furnish a better. The author has availed himself of the experience of several practical surveyors, in preparing this work, and has also consulted the best authorities that appeared to throw light upon the subjects treated of.
