"The ability to make neat and intelligible hand-sketches of machine details is probably quite as important to most practical working engineers as the power of making finished drawings to scale. Comparatively few skilled artisans are ever required to undertake the duties of draughtsmen, but very many are called upon, at some time or other, to give expression to their ideas or explain the requirements of their work by means of hand-sketches.
In this book are provided a number of examples such as student of Engineering might reasonably be expected to do, sketched of a suitable size and in a manner calculated to develop a good and clear style."
