For all maritime students..

The standard navigation textbook at the U.S. Naval Academy and NROTC college programs for twenty-five years, this highly regarded reference has trained more than two generations of students on the practice of marine navigation in the U.S. Navy. All aspects of the duties, practices, and responsibilities of the Navy surface navigator at sea are covered.

It will be a good book for all students at Maitime University of Constanta, Romania, when this will be published in Romania.
