Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an introduction to the fundamentals of navigation, a crucial skill for navigating both land and sea. Originating in the scientific study of the Earth's properties and locations of stars, planets, and constellations, early navigators invented instruments like the compass and astrolabe to compute their position and plot their course. The author simplifies concepts such as dead reckoning, triangulation, and celestial navigation, making the art of charting a course accessible to anyone willing to understand the simpler principles on which the subject is based. This book is an essential classic for anyone with an interest in venturing out into the wilderness or open water.
