"Highway Location and Surveying" is an essential technical treatise on the principles and practices of road design and site selection during a pivotal era of transportation development. Written by engineering experts W.W. Crosby and George E. Goodwin, this work provides a comprehensive overview of the technical and practical challenges involved in determining the most efficient and sustainable routes for highway construction.

The book delves into the systematic methodologies of surveying, covering reconnaissance, preliminary surveys, and final location mapping. It emphasizes the critical importance of balancing geometric design with economic considerations and topographical constraints to create functional and durable roadways. Readers will find detailed discussions on the professional tools and mathematical techniques utilized by civil engineers to ensure structural integrity and safety in large-scale infrastructure planning.

This volume serves as a significant historical resource for those interested in the evolution of civil engineering and the foundational methods that shaped the modern highway system. By focusing on the practical application of surveying data, "Highway Location and Surveying" offers deep insights into the professional standards and engineering rigor required to facilitate the growth of automotive travel and regional connectivity.
