Preliminaries or the foundations of the several arts above-mentioned. II. The various orders of architecture, laid down and improved from the best masters; with the ways of making draughts of buildings, gardens, groves, fountains, &c. the laying down of maps, cities, lordships, farms, &c. III. The doctrine and rules of mensuration of all kinds, illustrated by select examples in building, gardening, timber, &c. IV. Exact tables of mensuration, shewing, by inspection, the superficial and solid contents of all kinds of bodies, without the fatigue of arithmetical computation: to which is annexed, an account of the clandestine practice now generally obtaining in mensuration, and particularly the damage sustained in selling timber by measure. The whole exemplisy'd with a large number of folio copper plates, curiously engraven by the best hands. By Batty Langley
