Customer Reviews

  "If you are interested in celestial navigation read this book!



The author gives detailed instructions on how to use plotting

sheets using dr and information from sights and sight reduction.



The graphics which are very important to the book are too small

and I had to use a magnifying glass to read the detail but then

again my eyes are showing signs of age.



The authors uses the sight reduction tables in the back of the

nautical almanac which I don't care for as I prefer a calculator

but if you know the formulas it won't matter and if you don't

you can follow the authors examples.
