About this title

Synopsis

Under a canopy of stars, precision is the difference between landfall and getting lost in the blue. Real navigation starts above you. Armistead Rust's Ex-Meridian Altitude, Azimuth and Star-Finding Tables gathers the hard mathematics of celestial navigation into clear, highly practical tables for working navigators. Covering latitudes 0 to 65 and declinations 0 to 71 north and south, it supports ex-meridian altitude calculations, azimuth and star finding, and plotting lines of position even in cloudy weather, when only fleeting glimpses of sky are possible. Both rigorous celestial navigation tables and a compact nautical astronomy manual, it serves as an indispensable maritime navigation reference for cadets, yachtmasters, and bluewater sailors training for serious ocean passages. First published in the age of sextants and chronometers, these Armistead Rust navigation tables preserve pre gps navigation methods at their most refined, giving modern readers the same tools trusted by generations of seafarers for classic ocean voyaging navigation. Their clarity and reliability make them ideal for celestial navigation exam prep and as a trusted Bowditch navigation companion, sitting alongside the great tradition of practical seamanship. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, this careful edition brings a cornerstone of nautical education back into reach for practitioners, historians, and collectors who value the deep continuity of the maritime craft.
