Written by John Merrifield and originally published in 1868, this book covers a wide range of topics, from the basics of chart reading and compass use to more advanced topics such as celestial navigation and the calculation of latitude and longitude.The book is divided into four parts, each of which covers a different aspect of navigation and astronomy. Part One provides an overview of the principles of navigation, including the use of charts, compasses, and other tools. Part Two focuses on the use of celestial navigation, including the use of the stars, planets, and other celestial bodies to determine a ship's position. Part Three covers the calculation of latitude and longitude, as well as the use of chronometers and other timekeeping devices. Finally, Part Four provides a detailed discussion of nautical astronomy, including the calculation of the positions of the sun, moon, and planets.Throughout the book, Merrifield provides clear explanations of the principles and techniques of navigation and astronomy, as well as numerous examples and exercises to help readers practice their skills. The book also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers visualize the concepts being discussed.Overall, Navigation and Nautical Astronomy: Practical, Theoretical, Scientific is an essential resource for anyone interested in the art and science of navigation, whether for personal or professional purposes.
