"Gibson's Surveying was a dominant American text for a half century, and the standard against which others were compared. It appeared on the American scene when there was a need for what it offered, particularly in regard to calculating land areas from metes and bounds surveys. Despite several additions and changes by American editors, it never included descriptions or instructions on newer instruments such as the vernier compass, solar compass, or surveyors transit. Its heyday came and went, and it nobly served the needs of many pioneer American surveyors. Today it continues to serve professional surveyors by providing insight into alternative measuring methods used in early surveys." **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SCIENCE BOX 1
