In this guide, Schlereth draws on his experience as a sailor to explain how to navigate any stretch of sea using only a hand-held sextant, a watch, a plotting sheet, and a copy of the Nautical Almanac. The book offers instruction on how to take sights by the sun, moon, stars and planets, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Common errors are reviewed, and suggestions given for improving accuracy. Several examples and situational illustrations are included. No bibliography. Annotation c.
