Book Description:
|
For well over a century, this venerable book has been a mandatory part of every sailor's sea bag. When it first appeared there were instructions on rowing and sailing, "sighting telescopes", and "wig-wag" code. This new edition reflects technologies, cultural attitudes, and terminology that would be foreign to those turn-of-the century sailors, but the relevance of this long-standing guide remains.
