New Log and Versine Altitude Tables is a book written by De Aquino and Radler in 1912. The book contains a comprehensive collection of tables that are used to calculate the altitude of celestial bodies. These tables are based on logarithmic and versine functions, which are mathematical tools used to solve complex problems in astronomy.The book is divided into two main sections. The first section provides an introduction to the principles of celestial navigation and explains how to use the tables to calculate altitude. It also includes a brief history of celestial navigation and the development of altitude tables.The second section contains the tables themselves. They are arranged in a clear and easy-to-use format, with each table covering a specific range of declinations and latitudes. The tables include logarithmic and versine functions for calculating altitude, as well as corrections for atmospheric refraction and parallax.New Log and Versine Altitude Tables is a valuable resource for anyone interested in celestial navigation, including sailors, pilots, and astronomers. It is a testament to the ingenuity and skill of the authors, who were able to create a comprehensive set of tables that were essential for navigating the open seas and exploring the skies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
