Excerpt from Illustrated Architectural, Engineering,& Mechanical Drawing-Book: For the Use of Schools, Students, and Artisans

Where this has been departed from, and an apparent mixing up of examples has resulted, considerations involving obvious advantages have suggested the change. On the whole, however, we trust that the classification so desirable has in some measure been obtained.

Although aware that architectural and mechanical drawing has for some time taken its place in many scholastic establishments as a branch of ordinary education, we are nevertheless anxious to see it still more extensively adopted. We conceive it likely to be of more general use - even to those who may not at all contemplate following up any of the professions to which it is more specially useful - than may at first sight be acknowledged. Apart from the habit of method, which, if it does not create, it will at least foster and encourage, we see many advantages accruing to those desirous of having a knowledge of science by an acquaintance with its practice. And there are few, we think, in these days of practical science, who are not likely to be interested in its progress. Geometrical drawing - taking the term in its widest sense - is an art which will enable those acquainted with its principles to understand a scientific exposition with greater readiness than those can do who are ignorant of it. To convince the reader of the truth of this, we have only to remind him, that few expositions of improvements or inventions in practical science, in its widest range, are ever made without the aid of sketches, - these ranging from the simple diagram up to the more complicated drawing; and the ready understanding of these is open only to those acquainted with drawing. This consideration should, we think, weigh very forcibly with those who are doubtful of the propriety of following the example of so many educational establishments, in introducing geometrical drawing as an ordinary branch of education. To those desirous of following out the profession of architect, engineer, or mechanic, an acquaintance with the art is as indispensable as a knowledge of sketching from nature or objects is to the artist or painter. Without it, the practical man, however ingenious, will inevitably fail in perfecting, unaided, his ideas with that facility available to the accomplished draughtsman. Its usefulness in the workshop, moreover, is no less conspicuous than in the study or bureau, in enabling the inventor or improver to communicate his ideas clearly and readily to the workman. To the latter also it is equally important and indispensable, - we mean to those who are desirous of raising themselves above the level of the mere operative, the handler of the hammer or the mallet.
