MAP projection book

Hi!

I have used a MAP's projections book from USGS. I do not recall
the title and how to get it. Can somebody tell me how and where
I can get the book?

Thanks

Just guessing, but you may mean "Cartograpic Projection Procedures for
the UNIX Environment - A User's Manual" by Gerald I Evenden. This is
essentially the manual for PROJ.4, the projection filter, but also
contains descriptions and illustrations of many different projections.

You can obtain it with the source code for PROJ.4, by anonymous ftp from
charon.er.usgs.gov.
