    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. Carefully corrected and enlarged with many useful additions, by James Atkinson, Teacher of Navigation

    Practical navigation : or an introduction to the whole art, Containing many useful Geometrical Definitions and Problems; The Doctrine of Plain and Spherical Triangles; Plain Mercator, and Great-Circle-Sailing; Sundry useful Problems in Astronomy; The Use of Instruments; The Azimuth-Compass, and Ring-Dial, The Fore-Staff, Quadrant, and Nocturnal; The Plain Scale, Gunter's Scale, Plain-Chart, Mercator's Chart, both Globes, and Virtues of the Loadstone. Useful Tables of the Moon's Age, of the Tides, of the Sun's Place, Declination, and Right-Ascension; of the Stars Right Ascension and Declination; The Latitude and Longitude of Places, and a Table of Miridional Parts; Likewise a new Traverse-Table, and the Use thereof in keeping a Reckoning at Sea: Also a Table of 10000 Logarithms, and of the Logarithm Sines, Tangents, and Secants. All carefully Corrected, with many useful Additions. By John Seller, Hydrographer to the King

    Epitomy of navigation : Containing plain and easy rules, for the working all plain triangles, and their application to plain, traverse, oblique, Mercator and middle latitude sailing; with spherical trigonometry in all its cases, and its application to all the necessary problems in astronomy. To which is added, all necessary tables of the sun's declination, latitude and departure, meridional parts, latitude and longitude of places, &c. Concluding with a compleat table of logarithms, sines, tangents, &c. With the use of all the tables illustrated by examples. First written by Gellibrand, Norwood, and Jones; and now collected and digested into one compendium of navigation

    Navigation unvail'd; or, A new and complete system of navigation in all its branches : Containing, arithmetic, geometry, trigonometry, geography, and astronomy, in a more plain and easy method than any hitherto published, and more adapted to beginners. Sailing by the plain, and Mercator's or Wright's charts explained from the first principles, and fully illustrated in a variety of useful examples. The theory of the tides, currents, variation of the compass, leeway, &c. particularly considered; and the difficulties in reckoning, which proceed from them, fully explained. A complete set of all the tables useful in navigation, with their construction and use at large. The description and use of the instruments commonly used, and some new ones of the author's own invention. To which is added, a new way of keeping a reckoning on the principles of Mercator's or Wright's sailing, as easily as by the common erroneous method of plain sailing. The whole calculated for practice, and the examples such as occur at sea, in a manner quite different from other systems; being freed from the many superfluities and perplexities which those who have wrote on this subject, have generally made use of, and abounding with variety of rules which are absolutely necessary, and have never before been treated of: performed with the greatest exactness, and approved of by the most eminent mathematicians, of the age. By Edward Hauxley, teacher of the mathematicks
