Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
About the AuthorJohn Blake spent twelve years as an officer in the Royal Navy and is a Fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation. He is the author of The Sea Chart and Sea Charts of the British Isles and lives in England.Product DescriptionThe sea chart was one of the key tools by which ships of trade, transport and conquest navigated their course across the oceans. John Blake looks at the history and development of the chart and the related nautical map, in both scientific and aesthetic terms, as a means of safe and accurate seaborne navigation. This handsome work contains 150 color illustrations including the earliest charts of the Mediterranean made by early thirteenthcentury Italian merchant adventurers, as well as eighteenthcentury charts that became strategic naval and commercial requirements and led to Cook's voyages in the Pacific, the search for the Northwest Passage, and races to the Arctic and Antarctic.ReviewA work of remarkable beauty and excellence The Sea Chart appeals to more than mariners, leisured or professional. It is for all whose interest is in how Earth's continents and oceans were charted and our world shaped. US Naval War College Review
