An Introduction to the Practical and Theoretical Study of Nautical Surveying is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques used in the field of nautical surveying. Written by John Knox Laughton and first published in 1872, this book covers a wide range of topics related to the measurement and mapping of the earth's surface, including the use of instruments such as the sextant and the theodolite, the calculation of distances and angles, and the interpretation of nautical charts and maps.The book is divided into three parts. Part one provides an overview of the history and development of nautical surveying, as well as an introduction to the basic principles and techniques used in the field. Part two focuses on the practical aspects of nautical surveying, including the use of instruments and the collection and analysis of data. Part three delves into the theoretical aspects of the subject, including the mathematical principles underlying nautical surveying and the interpretation of maps and charts.Throughout the book, Laughton provides clear and concise explanations of the various concepts and techniques used in nautical surveying, making it an ideal resource for students, professionals, and anyone interested in the field. With its detailed illustrations and practical examples, An Introduction to the Practical and Theoretical Study of Nautical Surveying remains a valuable reference for anyone involved in the measurement and mapping of the earth's surface.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
