Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Navigator's Pocket-Book: Arranged for Immediate Reference to Any Navigation Subject; A Complete Guide and Instructor for the Navigator, Containing Four Hundred Adequate Definitions in Addition to All the Practical Rules for Working Middle Latitude There are many voluminous and bewildering works on the subject of navigation, but up to the present time there has not existed a series of short, simple laws founded on correct princi ples and expressed in homely language, whereby the navigator might quickly develop his position under various conditions at sea and along shore. In this little volume has been incorpo rated every practical formula for determining the latitude and longitude by dead reckoning and by solar, lunar, and stellar observations, as well as concise and lucid directions for chart work, the various sailings, and for accurately fixing the ship's place when in sight of land, and in every consideration the author has succeeded in simplifying and abridging the confus ing and tedious rules and methods in common use. The purely original arrangement of this pocket edition of commonsense navigation contributes generously to its value, as it affords means of immediate recourse to any and every subject within the sphere of the practical navigator. The problems are all worked according to Bowditch's American Nautical Tables, which may be purchased from any book-dealer for but it is to be explained that the numbers called for in the text may bevfii preface.

Book excerpt: From the New York Times-bestselling author of The Secret World of Weather and The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs, learn to tap into nature and notice the hidden clues all around you Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, humankind was navigating.

Rich with navigational anecdotes collected across ages, continents, and cultures, The Natural Navigator will help keep you on course and open your eyes to the wonders, large and small, of the natural world.
