Vitruvius: The Ten Books On Architecture is a classic work on architecture written by the ancient Roman architect and engineer, Vitruvius. Originally published in 27 BC, this book has been studied and referenced by architects and engineers for centuries. In this book, Vitruvius covers a wide range of topics related to architecture, including the design and construction of buildings, the principles of proportion and symmetry, the use of materials, and the importance of aesthetics. The book is divided into ten sections, each of which covers a different aspect of architecture. Throughout the book, Vitruvius draws on his own experiences as an architect and engineer, as well as on the works of other architects and engineers from the ancient world. This edition of the book was translated into English by Morris Hicky Morgan and was first published in 1914. It remains an important resource for anyone interested in the history and theory of architecture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
