"Industrial Arts Design" by William H. Varnum is a practical guide for designing in wood, clay, base, and precious metals. It is intended for individual student use in high schools, normal schools, and colleges and as a reference book for elementary school teachers. Its more complex problems are intended as definite help to the industrial art designer or craftsman. The wood problems are treated with special reference to their adaptability to bench and cabinet work. The book has been written to fill a decided demand for a textbook that shall, without loss of time, directly apply well-recognized principles of general design to specific materials and problems encountered in the Industrial Arts.
