Excerpt from Mathematical Instruments, Vol. 1: Their Construction, Adjustment, Testing, and Use
Upon the publication of the original edition of this treatise the author was very greatly and very agreeably surprised by the large number of complimentary letters that he received from persons engaged in a variety of pursuits, many of whom were entirely unknown to him. The praises, thus liberally bestowed on his humble work, were supplemented by its introduction, as a text-book, into numerous educational establishments, and its selection by the Admiralty to form part of a midshipman's kit.
It was manifest, then, that his little book had supplied a want that was strongly felt; and the writer, fully aware of its deficiencies, has long' been anxious for the Opportunity to improve upon his first essay, which has been afforded him by the liberality of the present proprietors of the weale series.
