About this ebook
James B. Read
Read is a curious retired engineer, always seeking to understand this world. He has been obsessed with the early navigators, the instruments they used, and how they mysteriously managed to find their way on the high seas, far from any land. In addition, he has developed innovative ways to help others understand the art and science of offshore navigation. Beyond this, he has created a birdbath mounted sundial that not only keeps accurate time, but allows the owner to record the figure 8 analemma and other celestial events.
