The Adriatic Pilot is a comprehensive guidebook for sailors and navigators traveling through the Adriatic Sea. It was originally published in 1861 by the Admiralty Hydrographic Office, and is based on surveys conducted by three experienced navigators: Bampana, Visconti, and Smyth. The book also includes information from the portolano of Marieni, a 15th century Italian sailing guide. The guidebook covers the entire Adriatic Sea, from the coast of Italy to the shores of Croatia, Montenegro, and Albania. It provides detailed descriptions of ports, harbors, and anchorages, as well as information on tides, currents, and weather patterns. The book also includes charts, maps, and illustrations to help sailors navigate the region safely and efficiently. The Adriatic Pilot is a valuable resource for anyone planning to sail or navigate through the Adriatic Sea. It is an important historical document that provides insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by sailors in the 19th century, and it remains relevant for modern-day sailors and historians alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
