Master navigation made easier with precise hour-angle and azimuth tables.

This practical reference compiles calculated hour-angles, altitude-azimuth data, and ex-meridian tables to help fix a ship’s position quickly using sun, moon, or star observations. The edition also includes calculated reductions and azimuths for bright stars from one to three hours from the meridian, making it a valuable tool at sea and in training.

The book offers a compact, ready-to-use toolkit for celestial navigation:

Tables of calculated hour-angles for a wide latitude range (30� N to 30� S) and ex-meridian work (60� N to 60� S).
Altitude-azimuth data to determine azimuth corrections and positions.
Reductions and azimuths for bright stars within a few hours of meridian passage.
Practical examples and guidance for fixing position from two sun or star observations.

Ideal for navigators and students of celestial navigation seeking a dependable, hands-on reference.
