Do you have a specific title or ISBN to look for, a book you
yourself read and thought was great in this field?




I was formally trained for architectural and mechanical drawings almost
50 years ago and there was no text book used then.
I switched to CAD drawing in 1986.
There will likely be no recent publications for manual drafting and they
will be scarce.

I got one that was recommended here. I could look up the title, but
that's not really important. I just wanted to mention that the used
book stores (abebooks.com, etc.) have these books-and they are priced
right. Such a book will probably have been published between the 50s and
60s. I can come up with the title if desired.


You might do web search.
