Best books to learn Multivariable calculus, in order

Multivariable calculus generalizes single-variable ideas into higher dimensions, so it only works if that foundation and some linear algebra are solid. The arc moves from partial derivatives and gradients, to multiple integrals and coordinate changes, to vector fields and the capstone theorems (Green's, Stokes', divergence)—which unify everything and reward patience rather than a rush to the formulas.
