Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Macedonians build a fountain and upset the Greeks. Villages on the road to Lake Ohrid fly Albanian flags instead of Macedonian ones. Kosovan taxi drivers believe fundamentalists are being sponsored in their country by former foes. Dubrovnik is so popular a one-way system is now in operation on the city walls. In Sarajevo, the place the First World War started is not easy to find, but evidence of more recent atrocities is. Memories are long in The Balkans, contrasts and contradictions are all around. History is always in your face, reminding you nothing stays the same for long in this most fascinating corner of Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 150 years the United States Nautical Almanac Office has published The Nautical Almanac, first as part of the American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac, and then on its own, to provide the US Navy with a convenient form of the astronomical data used for celestial navigation. This book is still the standard resource for marine celestial navigation for the U.S. Navy. The book is produced in collaboration with Her Majesty's Nautical Almanac Office in the UK. That Office maintains the copyright on the material it produces. The Nautical Almanac contains the following data tabulated at hourly intervals to a precision of 0.1 arcminute: the Greenwich hour angle and declination of the Sun, Moon, and navigational planets; the Greenwich hour angle of Aries; positions of the navigational stars; rise and set times of the Sun and Moon for a range of latitudes; and other data. Each edition also contains a sight reduction tab≤ sight reduction formulas; and various correction tables for sight reduction. There is a useful concise sight reduction form at the back of the book. The Nautical Almanac is available 9 months in advance of its edition date.

Muir and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 790 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Navigation and Nautical Astronomy, Including the Theory of Compass Deviations, Prepared for Use as a Text-Book at the U. S: Naval Academy In this volume, the endeavor has been made to place under one cover the allied subjects of Navigation, Theory of Compass Deviations, and Nautical Astronomy; and, though the book has been written primarily for the use of midshipmen, it is believed that the various subjects have been so presented that any zealous student with only a slight knowledge of trigonometry may be able to master any method given. An effort has been made to include in this work not only the results of a large practical experience at sea, but information gleaned, during tours of duty in this department, from a study of the best English and American authorities. Much attention has been given to a description of the various navigational instruments, their uses, and errors; and to the principles involved in the construction of charts as well as to an account of the work usually performed on them. The Theory of the Deviations of the Compass has been presented in the popular way for the practical man, and from a mathematical standpoint for more advanced students. In Part II enough of Theoretical Astronomy has been incorporated to enable any one without a previous knowledge of that science to pursue the study of the practical part of Nautical Astronomy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from d104-Book on Navigation, And, Nautical Astronomy This work is designed to meet the special requirements of officers of the Merchant Service, and to be a complete d104Book on Navigation, eta, for the general student. Candidates for Board of Trade Certificates will find in it all that is needed to cope with the new regulations for the Examinations of Mates and Masters, from the lowest to the highest grades, as regards both practice and principles. The new features in this edition are - (1) Rearrangement, by which the proofs of the various problems are inserted at the beginning of the separate chapter instead of being collected in one chapter at the end of the book. This gives the student a better chance of comprehending each problem. (2) All the astronomical examples are fresh, the necessary rules are given for working them, and, where possible, an example is worked direct from the figure, without using special formula; this will be found of great assistance to those contemplating going in for the "extra" examination. (3) The necessary elements from the Nautical Almanac are embodied in the book in the form found in the N.A., and so will afford as good practice in extracting the data as the possession of the Almanac itself. (4) The chapters on Triqonometry have been entirely rewritten, and the student is shown how to construct both Plane and Spherical Triangles to scale.
