This work, yet another practical work of math from the Wythe collection, focuses interestingly on the accurate measurements of the quantities and volumes of casks. Likely useful for someone maintaining any kind of brewing or liquid storage operation it would also be a useful instruction manual for anyone engaging in coopering. [1]
