Frank Reed has kindly provided a link to an on-line copy of the 1828 edition of "New and Complete Epitome of Practical Navigation" by Norie: http://www.mysticseaport.org/library/initiative/ImPage.cfm?BibID=13617&ChapterId=1 Does anyone know of a link to an on-line copy of Bowditch's "American Practical Navigator" of similar vintage (before 1900)? I am aware that the 2002 edition of Bowditch is available in pdf format at http://pollux.nss.nima.mil/pubs/pubs_j_apn_sections.html?rid=187 -- Chuck Taylor North of Seattle __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
