Nautical Charts
by G. R. Putnam
Publisher: J. Wiley 1908
ISBN/ASIN: B007SPEJRA
Number of pages: 206
Description:
A considerable portion of the human race is interested directly or indirectly, whether as mariners or passengers or shippers, in navigation upon the sea. Aside from supplying a handbook for those who might have a general interest in the subject, it was thought that a discussion of charts might lead to further consideration of the principles governing their construction.
