The classic on the subject of astronavigation
The well-known specialist book tour Bobby Schenk knows how to present complicated things in a simple and understandable way
For a long time, astronomical navigation was considered a secret science - with good reason. After all, before the invention of the computer, with which predictions can be made, astronomical navigation was not a convenient matter, and even after the invention of the chronometer, the exact time would have been a problem for yacht sailors until the time signal came.
With this book - it is now already a classic - astronomical navigation loses its horrors. The experienced circumnavigator does not require any previous knowledge, not even in mathematics. Anyone who can add or subtract two numbers can learn his or her method of determining a location using the sun, moon and stars.
After all, a responsible navigator should not rely on modern satellite-based radio navigation methods such as GPS alone. In crisis situations, you may not have access to them, and in such cases you would be well advised to master at least one classic method of determining location.
With Bobbby Schenk, you will not only succeed quickly - you will even have fun with astronomical navigation.
