Infos

Praised by The Practical Sailor as a first-class piece of work, Susan P. Howells Practical Celestial Navigation was developed for Mystic Seaports navigation courses. This third edition, originally published by the Seaports Planetarium, retains the step-by-step format of the original, along with an abundance of diagrams and practice problems. Practical Celestial Navigation is recommended as a self-instruction text for beginners or for old celestial hands getting back in practice.
