The ''Manual of Admeasurement'' is a book written by Isaac Ridler Butts in 1865, which provides a comprehensive analysis of the United States Tonnage Law of 1864 and the methodology used for measuring ships and vessels. The book is a valuable resource for shipbuilders, shipowners, and anyone involved in the maritime industry, as it explains the legal requirements for measuring a vessel’s tonnage, which is a critical factor in determining its carrying capacity and profitability. The book covers the various methods used for measuring ships, including the old and new tonnage measurement systems, and provides detailed instructions on how to calculate a vessel’s tonnage using these methods. It also includes a glossary of nautical terms and a list of tables and formulas that can be used for tonnage calculations. Overall, the ''Manual of Admeasurement'' is an essential guide for anyone interested in the technical aspects of shipbuilding and maritime commerce in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
