All About Slide Rules Book (PDF)

[John Cadick]

For anyone interested in sliderules, there are several sources on the web including YouTube. I won't mention any that are already in this thread:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5_xLh2nRv0 -- basic instructional video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4egBM_N3s0&t=208s -- basic instructional video

http://www.srtco.us/ -- General informational site, Specializes in Sun Hemmi and Post

http://sliderulemuseum.com/ -- Very comprehensive site with instructional information links, and examples of a huge number of slide rules from around the world

http://sliderule.ozmanor.com/ -- General interest site. Has a large number of pdf downloads of specific slide rule user manuals and general information books.

Finally, the Oughtred Society (http://www.oughtred.org) - in addition to All About Slide Rules - has published a number of excellent instructional books and information for slide rules. There is one book for example written by an ex-K&E employee.
