"An Introduction to Machine Drawing and Design" by David Allan Low is a guide from the 1800's that teaches engineering students and professionals how to make technical drawings of machines. Low criticizes old teaching methods where students only copied drawings without understanding them, and teaches with hands-on exercises. These exercises help students understand machine design by making accurate drawings based on what they see and learn, teaching the students about measurement and creating accurate drawings.
