Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to the art and science of navigation, written for those who may not have a formal education in mathematics or astronomy. Recognizing that navigating by the stars requires knowledge of complex mathematical and astronomical principles, yet is practiced by individuals without such training, the author aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice. He acknowledges the challenging conditions under which sailors must often work their navigational problems, and emphasizes the need for simplified formulas that can be easily remembered and applied. The book aims to demystify the complexities of navigation, providing a conversational approach that illuminates the reasoning behind the formulas and demystifies the underlying scientific principles. Through clear explanations and practical examples, the author equips the reader with the necessary skills for understanding the fundamental concepts of navigation, from calculating a day's work to determining latitude and longitude, and even delving into the mysteries of lunar observations. This book's unique blend of practicality and theoretical understanding makes it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to master the art of navigation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
