Finding the Best Geometry Textbook for My Course

Click For Summary
For a proof-based Geometry course covering both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry, recommended textbooks include "Geometry: Euclid and Beyond" by Robin Hartshorne, which is highly regarded for its comprehensive treatment of Euclidean geometry. Another suggestion is "Introduction to Smooth Manifolds" by John M. Lee, which also addresses non-Euclidean concepts. Both books are suitable for students seeking a deeper understanding of geometric principles through proofs.

I'm taking a class on Geometry next semester an I'm in need of a good book. It will be both euclidean and non-euclidean geometry and is a proof based course. Sorry, I know that's rather vague but that's all I know about the class.

Thank you!

i am self learning physics. have you ever worked your way backwards again after finishing most undergrad courses? i have textbooks for junior/senior physics courses in classical mechanics, electrodynamics, thermal physics, quantum mechanics, and mathematical methods for self learning. i have the Halliday Resnick sophomore book. working backwards, i checked out Conceptual Physics 11th edition by Hewitt and found this book very helpful. What i liked most was how stimulating the pictures...
