Navigation and Nautical Astronomy: For the Use of British Seamen is a comprehensive guidebook for seafarers, written by James Inman in 1849. The book covers a wide range of topics related to navigation and astronomy, including the use of the sextant, celestial navigation, and the calculation of latitude and longitude. It also includes detailed explanations of the principles of nautical astronomy, such as the determination of the time of day, the measurement of the altitude of celestial bodies, and the calculation of the ship's position using the stars. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous diagrams and illustrations to aid understanding. It is intended for use by British seamen, but its practical advice and detailed explanations make it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of navigation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
