Topographic Surveying

Abstract

MR. WILSON'S book is comprehensive, clear and well illustrated, and contains much information of practical use to the surveyor and explorer, which is not usually found in works on surveying and map-making. Its author is a member of the staff of the United States Geological Survey, and his remarks on the methods and processes of that Survey are therefore of special interest.

Topographic Surveying.

By Herbert M. Wilson. Pp. 884. (New York: Wiley and Sons. London: Chapman and Hall, 1900.)
