Excerpt from A Class in Geometry: Lessons in Observation and Experiment The study of geometry can begin with observation. - The general disfavor with which my schoolfellows used to open Euclid is a vivid remembrance of my boyhood. In vain did the teacher say that geometry underlies not only architecture and engineering, but navigation and astronomy. As we were never given any illustration of this alleged underlying to make the fact stick in our minds, but were kept strictly to theorem and problem, Euclid remained for most of us the driest and dreariest lesson of the week. Not so with me; for geometry was my favorite study, and the easy triumph of leading the class in it was mine. As years of business life succeeded my school days I could not help observing a good many examples of the principles set forth in the lines and figures I had conned as a boy: examples which, had they been presented to my schoolfellows, would certainly have somewhat diminished Euclid's unpopularity. In fulness of time it fell to my lot to be concerned in the instruction of three boys, one fourteen years of age, the second twelve years of age, the third a few months younger. In thinking how I might make attractive to them what had once been my best-enjoyed lessons, I took up my ink-stained Euclid, Playfair's edition.
