Houston Banks of George Peabody College for Teachers covers sets, symbols, relations, counting, negative numbers, multiplication and division, alternate notation systems, binary and octal numbers, algorithms, number theory, rational numbers, geometry, measurement, and related exercises. Published by Allyn and Bacon in 1966. The copyright page shows the original 1966 publication with no later edition or printing identified, supporting first-edition identification.

Mild scattered handwritten notes and calculations are present, including substantial calculations on the front endpaper and occasional marks on interior pages.
