Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on Algebra, Theoretical and Practical: Adapted to the Instruction of Youth in Schools and Colleges

As Utility is the great object aimed at in this Publication, I have spared no pains to make a careful selection of materials, from the most approved sources, which may tend to elucidate, in a full and clear manner, the Elements of Algebra, both in theory and practice.

Those authors of whose labours I have principally availed myself, are Euler, Clairaut, Lacroix, Gamier, Bezout, La grange, Newton, Simson, Emerson, Wood, Bonnycastle, Bridge and Bland.

To Bland's Algebraical Problems, (a work compiled for the use of Students in one of the first Universities in Europe), I am chiefly indebted for the problems in Simple, Pure, and Quadratic Equations.

By permission of the learned Dr. Adrain, I have added, as an Appendix, his method of demonstrating algebraically the propositions in the fifth book of Euclid's Elements.
