The weather was less dull today, so I’ve taken the opportunity to photograph two chapters from the 1938 version, 1949 reprint, of ‘The Sextant Book’, namely ‘The Booth Bubble Horizon’ and ‘The Construction of Air Sextants’, neither of which applied in 1915. I’ll start them under separate headings lest they demand any further postings
