    I was amused to stumble upon a typo in Bowditch's first edition of APN, particularly since he touted the accuracy of his tables and instructions, as compared with Hamilton's New Practical Navigator. Although inconsequential, it still amused me, it being blatent and catching my eye seconds after turning to the page.
