A 1679 London treatise by Moses Cook, printed for P. Parker, on planting and managing forest and fruit trees, woods, avenues and hedges, with rules for measuring land and timber by arithmetic and geometry. Its copperplate figures are geometric diagrams: triangles, circles, an ellipse with lettered points, and squares and angles with dimensions, drawn in clean line with simple labels a designer could borrow for technical layouts.
