“Interesting work bringing a glimpse of the High Renaissance period to the present. The author’s intention was “to present Leonardo as a writer, and to include in this work all passages from the note-books of philosophical, artistic, or literary interest.” Writings may be a little dry at times, and at others’ profound. There is much discussion for an artist concerning his approach to artistic shadows and light. I particularly enjoyed the tiny glimpses of his reverence to God calling Him “marvelous Necessity”, and “stupendous Necessity”. Pulling back the curtain about the humanity and inspiration of Da Vinci makes for an interesting read.”
Note that A.M. Smith states this book is “published by A.M. Smith. (There are different titles for this work besides the one entered here from the spine.) The first blank page states Smith as the Publisher, and “Illustrated History of the U.S. Mint, How Money is Made, United States and Colonial Coins.” The second free page rear has a photo of “A Loudon Snowden”. Across from the photo is the copyrighted statement, and calls this work “Coins and Coinage, the United States Mint, Philadelphia, History, Biography, Statistics, Work, Machinery, Products, Officials.”
“Delightful little book that would have helped teach that “A motor vehicle, for the learner’s purpose, is not to be considered as a whole, but as an aggregation of parts.” The book was written in 1905, and is just 91 pages, but detailed about an automobile’s basic parts and operation. Many photos.”
