D. M. North said The Surveyor's Bible. While preparing for my licensing exam, I read this book from cover to cover. It addresses every principle of retracement (sequential and simultaneous conveyances), public lands, and riparian issues thoroughly. The highlighted "principle" at the heading of each new topic makes remembering the main points simple. I can honestly say that every question on the NCEES exam that dealt with general principles and practice was answered in this book. I passed on my first sitting, and this book was one of the main reasons w. Teach me said The book with the heart of a teacher!. I recently purchased this book which I am impressed with, & Evidence & Procedures for Boundary Location 5th Edition which I could hardly understand what I was reading most of the time (Written as a lawyer would speak). I have not finished this book, but understand what I am reading. The same three authors have had input on both books, but Brown's Boundary Control has been worded in a way that a teacher would say things in order for all of his students to understand. I am impressed with the ability of the authors . "beyond the books" according to A. Davis. This publication covers a preponderance of topics to provide objectivity to what can be a highly subjective matter. Concepts and principles are delineated in meaningful ways and the applications are expounded upon.A must for all persons involved with land management, use, development, and preservation.
"This new edition of Brown's Boundary Control and Legal Principles - the classic reference to boundary law for property surveying - has been updated and expanded to reflect ongoing changes in surveying technology and surveying law. A wealth of case studies on federal and state nonsectionalized land surveys demonstrates real-world examples of covered material." (Ontario Professional Surveyor, Summer 2009)
