”Your work on Euclid seems admirable, and is a great improvement in most ways on its predecessors. It is a great thing to call the attention of students to the innumerable variations in statement and simple deductions from propositions.…I should have preferred some modification of Euclid to a reproduction, but I suppose people cannot be got to agree to any.”
From H. J. Cooke, Esq., The Academy, Banbridge.
”In the clearness, neatness, and variety of demonstrations, it is far superior to any text-book yet published, whilst the exercises are all that could be desired.”
From James A. Poole, M.A., 29, Harcourt-street, Dublin.
”This work proves that Irish Scholars can produce Class-books which even the Head Masters of English Schools will feel it a duty to introduce into their establishments.”
From Professor Leebody, Magee College, Londonderry.
”So far as I have had time to examine it, it seems to me a very valuable addition to our text-books of Elementary Geometry, and a most suitable introduction to the ‘Sequel to Euclid,’ which I have found an admirable book for class teaching.”
From Mrs. Bryant, F.C.P., Principal of the North London Collegiate School for Girls.
”I am heartily glad to welcome this work as a substitute for the much less elegant text-books in vogue here. I have begun to use it already with some of my classes, and find that the arrangement of exercises after each proposition works admirably.”
From the Rev. J. E. Reffé, French College, Blackrock.
