Geometry books for pre college level including olymiad level

AI Thread Summary
For mastering Euclidean geometry at the elementary and pre-college levels, several key texts are recommended. "Advanced Euclidean Geometry" by Roger A. Johnson is noted as a solid resource, but "Elements" by Euclid is considered essential for foundational understanding. Kiselev's Geometry is suggested for beginners seeking a straightforward introduction. Additionally, "Geometry Revisited" and "Introduction to Geometry" by H.S.M. Coxeter are highlighted for their depth and comprehensive coverage, with the latter being particularly detailed. Edwin Moise's work is also mentioned as a valuable resource for learners. Overall, these texts collectively provide a robust framework for studying Euclidean geometry.

please suggest the books 'must do' in eucleodian geometry for elementary and pre college level.
Is doing 'Advanced Eucleodian Geometry' by Roger A.johnson enough?

To learn Euclidean geometry, the best book would probably be Elements. If you can get your hands on those older volumes, it would really be nice.

Roger Johnson is good, here are some more suggestions

0) Kiselev's Geometry
Very basic, if you need a solid introduction to the subject.

1) Coxeter - Geometry revisited
https://www.amazon.com/dp/0883856190/?tag=pfamazon01-20

2) Coxeter - Introduction to geometry. (I'm doing this one right now)
Very detailed and has much more than Euclidean

3) Edwin Moise

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
This is part 2 of my thread Collection of Free Online Math Books and Lecture Notes Here, we will consider physics and mathematical methods for physics resources. Now, this is a work in progress. Please feel free comment regarding items you want to be included, or if a link is broken etc. Note: I will not post links to other collections, each link will point you to a single item. :book:📚📒 [FONT=trebuchet ms]Introductory college/university physics College Physics, Openstax...
