Excerpt from A Treatise on Navigation and Nautical Astronomy The practical and the theoretical parts of the course are kept in a great measure distinct; each has thus its own completeness; while on the one hand it is hoped that no rule is given without its full comple ment of reason, on the other, it has not been thought desirable so to interweave them as to break the order of the purely practical course.

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.
