 | Celestial Navigation for Yachtsmen by Mary Blewitt
There is a deep mystery and profound satisfaction to finding one's position on earth by reference to the sun and stars. That is why, Loran and GPS notwithstanding, there will always be room on a boater's shelf for a manual of celestial navigation--especially one so unintimidating as this. Since 1967, Celestial Navigation for Yachtsmen has been the best-known, best-loved primer on the subject. It successfully teachers sailors who have been demoralized by bigger, more expensive books. Abstaining from theory, it concentrates on the cookbook techniques needed to obtain and work any heavenly sight. Among other changes, this edition substitutes the Nautical Almanac for the Air Almanac, and shows how to construct plotting sheets and advance a line of position for a running fix.
