Is not the classic text "Optics" by Hecht?

Come now, the classical texts are Born and Wolf, Drude, et alia.

Strong's is too "old"?

How about the UK used text by Ditchburn "Light"?

For the practical, there's "Contemporary Optics for Scientists and Engineers", which features matrix methods.

bc endured the UCB text, Jenkins and White

Don't forget Strong, J. & White, Drude, B & W, Landau & Lifshitz, et alia. are free from internet archive(s).
