Review: Simply the best investment in any nautical book to date... - Having done a proper RYA course on this subject twice in the last 15 years this was the first time that I really began to understand what the subject was about rather than simply complete a course. The workbook is designed to inspire you to explore the reasons why something is the way it is rather than simply a descriptive definition of the terms and theory involved. I now understand not just how to use the Nautical Almanac but how it is constructed so that I can double check its figures without assuming they must be correct because its an official publication. The joy in realising that you do understand not just the concepts or the theory but how to apply that knowledge (which will always be in your head rather than a PC) in a vast variety of circumstances really makes you appreciate the wonderful clockwork of the heavens above but also the sheer mastery that our ancient mariners had when they used this knowledge in the confidence that they could safely navigate the oceans around them. In short BUY this book and master this "black" art for ever. One day your GPS will die : the knowledge and the confidence gained by completing this workbook will not. Thanks Peter B.
Review: great price - The book is a brilliant study of celestial navigation techniques, the problem is that when you buy it in the UK you do not get the free computer version of the book along with your purchase, there are a few other Starpath goodies that you do not qualify for also. But all in alll a great book at a great price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent easy to follow book
*by A***R on 14 January 2019*

Decided I wanted to learn Celestial Navigation so got this book. I have found it very well laid out and easy to follow. It has been done so that you can learn the components and do the navigation without having to understand much about what is behind it, but goes into more depth if you want to. Exercises are good. I would recommend this book.
