Excerpt from Navigation: Illustrated by Diagrams This book is intended for the use of young men of limited mathematical training who hope to qualify as Ensigns in the United States Navy, or for officers in the Naval Reserve, or Merchant Marine. The text is clari fied by a far fuller use Of diagrams than in other works Of similar scope, for the author believes in graphic ex planations whenever these are possible.
