""Elements of Descriptive Geometry"" is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of descriptive geometry, written by John B. Millar and first published in 1878. The book provides a thorough overview of the subject, starting with the basics of point, line, and plane geometry, and progressing to more advanced topics such as projections, intersection of surfaces, and development of surfaces. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations and diagrams that help to clarify the concepts discussed. The book is intended for students of engineering, architecture, and other technical fields, as well as for professionals in these industries who wish to deepen their understanding of descriptive geometry. With its clear explanations and practical examples, ""Elements of Descriptive Geometry"" remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in this fascinating field of study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

The difficulties which hinder beginners I have found to be chiefly of two kinds. One of these arises from the want of sufficient knowledge of solid geometry; the study of projections, as a practical subject, is begun too commonly before the student has made himself acquainted with the geometrical principles on which the solutions of the problems depend. To begin in that way is, I think, to make a mistake; for, without a knowledge of first principles, it is impossible to get such a grasp of the subject as will make it the useful and effective instrument which it ought to be. I have, therefore, considered it best to devote the first chapter to some theorems on the straight line and plane, and to introduce occasional theorems in the other parts of the work; my object being to establish the principles before giving their applications.
