[Math] Textbook for Vector Calculus

analysisreference-requestvector analysisvectors

Can anyone recommend a textbook for studying vector calculus (vector analysis) only, that focuses on the theoretical mathematics behind vector calculus?

Currently, I am using vector analysis by Snider. I have also taken a look at vector calculus by Marsden. Both of these books skip a large amount of the theory behind what we are doing and why it matters.

Rigorous yet accessible text by J. H. Hubbard and B. B. Hubbard. Vector calculus, linear algebra, and differential forms: a unified approach with Maple 10 VP. Pearson Education, Limited, Mar. 2006.
