The fact that this latest book by Lieut. Radler de Aquino, of the Brazilian Navy, offers ready solutions, without the use of logarithms, for nearly all the problems of navigation, that the method used is general for all solutions, and that it contains in compact form all the necessary tables, should make it popular, and especially so to the navigator who dislikes to use logarithms. After the tables are once thoroughly understood and the various precepts remembered, they can be used very readily, being particularly valuable for star sights, when two or more stars are observed simultaneously, for star identification, and for obtaining corrections for variations in data.
