Geometry: For Grammar Schools (1896)

Geometry: For Grammar Schools is a textbook written by Ephraim Hunt and originally published in 1896. The book is designed to teach geometry to students in grammar schools, which at the time referred to schools that taught basic subjects to students between the ages of six and fourteen. The book covers a range of topics in geometry, including lines, angles, triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, and solid geometry. It also includes exercises and problems for students to solve, as well as illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding. Hunt's approach to teaching geometry is based on the idea that students should learn by doing, rather than simply memorizing formulas and theorems. He emphasizes the importance of students developing their own understanding of geometric concepts through experimentation and exploration, and provides numerous examples and exercises to help them do so. Overall, Geometry: For Grammar Schools is a comprehensive and accessible introduction to geometry for young students, and has been used in classrooms for over a century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
