The book Sailing Directions of Henry Hudson: Prepared for His Use in 1608, from the Old Danish of Ivar Bardsen is a historical text written by Benjamin Franklin DeCosta. The book is based on the original sailing directions used by the famous explorer Henry Hudson during his journey to the New World in 1608. The text is a translation of the Old Danish manuscript written by Ivar Bardsen, which was used by Hudson to navigate his way through the treacherous waters of the North Atlantic. The book provides a detailed account of Hudson's voyage, including his encounters with the indigenous people of the region and his attempts to find a new route to the Far East. The sailing directions are presented in their original format, with annotations and explanations provided by the author. DeCosta's book is an important historical document that sheds light on the early exploration of the New World and the challenges faced by early navigators. It is a valuable resource for historians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of exploration and navigation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
