ReviewsPractical Celestial Navigation is an excellent text for classroom instruction. We have been using it in our celestial navigation courses at Mystic Seaport since it was first published in 1979. It has many clear, helpful diagrams and an abundance of practice problems. Correct answers, which are supplied for checking the practice problems, combined with the many sample problems, make this book a good choice for self-instruction by the diligent student. The text is designed for use with sight reduction tables, H.O. 229, Volume 3.

SynopsisPraised by The Practical Sailor as "a first-class piece of work," Susan P. Howell's Practical Celestial Navigation was developed for Mystic Seaport's navigation courses. This third edition, originally published by the Seaport's Planetarium, retains the step-by-step format of the original, along with an abundance of diagrams and practice problems. Practical Celestial Navigation is recommended as a self-instruction text for beginners or for old celestial hands getting back in practice.
