Instructions to County Surveyors of Nebraska

In 1914, Robert Harvey, a seasoned Nebraska State Surveyor, published a groundbreaking manual on land surveying that addressed previously uncharted topics. Drawing on 45 years of experience, he detailed methods for locating original section corners and exposed a fraudulent technique he termed the "Short Cut Method." The book quickly gained acclaim among professionals in surveying, engineering, and law, becoming a sought-after reference. This reprint includes original illustrations and text, along with a preface by Jerold F. Penry and a biography of Harvey.
