Synopsis "Navigation History, Application and Fun with the Sun (in English)"

This book was created as a result of much frustration, while attempting to read and understand navigation HOW-TO books. While attempting to decipher the material, I would become lost, unable to comprehend what the author was describing and how I got there. Eventually I was able to create drawings which brought all the confusing details into focus. The result, everything finally made sense. You could think of this as a primer, once you have grasped my simplifications, you are equipped to comprehend the more detailed writings of the experts While working through the details it became clear that NAVIGATION HISTORY would not only be interesting and helpful, but would also tie everything together. I have been obsessed with the early Portuguese navigators and how their pilots managed obtain positions, ever since I sat alone in the cockpit, out on the high seas. Inside this manuscript are revealed the secret methods, "STATE SECRETS", that they used to locate themselves, far beyond any reference from land. As an additional topic of interest, I have provided the reader with detailed instructions, that describe how to create a sundial, which mounts on a birdbath. This amazing device is not only able to keep accurate time, but also allows the builder to track and record the annual figure 8 ANALEEMA.
