First sentence: My purpose in writing this book will be apparent from it's great usefulness, which, I am quite sure will be conceded by thoughtful and intelligent readers.
Description: A plain statement of the methods of wood pattern making, as practiced in modern pattern shops, with complete instructions for sweep work and notes on foundry practice, together with numerous patterns taken from actual patterns which have been selected at random by the author from a modern pattern room with a view to illustrate the processes of the craft and the instructions contained in this work.
