Navigation and Nautical Astronomy
by
Commander Benjamin Dutton
United States Naval Institute
This text was prepared for the instruction of midshipmen at the US Naval
Academy since at least 1926. There are many editions.
I doubt it is used now if what I hear about the discontinuation of
teaching celestial navigation is true. Amazing if true.
Anyway, there it is.
You should be able to find a very cheap copy on any number of used book
stores on the internet.
