Uniform Title Epitome of navigation
Title An epitome of navigation : containing the doctrine of plain and spherical triangles, and their use and application in plain sailing, mercator's sailing, and great circle sailing, as also in astronomy and geography, and rules for finding the variation of the compass, and correcting the course. Together with tables of the sun and stars right ascension and declination, of the latitude and longitude of places, of meridional parts. Likewise a traverse-table, a perpetual almanack; and other things very useful in the art of navigation. And the logarithm sines and tangents, with the logarithms of natural numbers, from 1 to 10000, according to those exact tables formerly set forth. By Henry Gellibrand.
Alternative Title Triangular canon logarithmical, or, A table of artificial sines and tangents.
Table of logarithms of absolute numbers, from and unite to 10000.
Several tables necessary in navigation.
Appendix containing the use of the cross-staff, quadrant and nocturnal in navigation.
Publication Info London : printed for Richard Mount, at the Postern on Tower-hill, 1698.
