Description:
- "[A] printed exercise book used by Charles Rohault de Fleury at the Ecole polytechnique in 1820-1821. The engraved plates proceed systematically from simple exercises in geometric projections to the most complex problems of stereotomy and construction of wooden roof sections. Many of the problems have been solved by Rohault and bear the approval seal of his professor." (Bergdoll, [1]). The group also includes nine loose sheets most of which appear to be cartographic exercises.
