Nautical Dinnerware

A PAPERBACK ORIGINAL The best handbook on chart usage, from one of the most trusted names in boating In 2000, the U.S. government ceased publication of "Chart No. 1, the invaluable little book that generations of mariners have consulted to make sense of the complex system of signs, symbols, and graphic elements used in nautical charts. Now "Chart No. 1 is not just reborn but expanded and improved in "How to Read a Nautical Chart. The demand for a book like this has never been greater. Arranged and edited by Nigel Calder, one of today's most respected boating authors, --and containing four-color illustrations throughout, -- "How to Read a Nautical Chart presents a number of original features that help readers make optimum use of the data found in "Chart No. 1, including a more intuitive format, crucial background information, international chart symbol equivalents, electronic chart symbology, and thorough explanations of the practical aspects of nautical chart reading.

"One of those rare reference guides that is as much fun to read as it is useful."--Nathaniel Philbrick, author of "In the Heart of the Sea "The Dictionary of Nautical Literacy is the first book to chart the culture of the sea--a comprehensive and entertaining reference for all those with an interest in things nautical. More than 3,500 entries describe the ideas, events, and individuals that have shaped our maritime language, geography, commerce, warfare, law, literature, art, film, and more. "The Dictionary is a unique reference to browse, contemplate, peruse, and consult again and again. "On every page this work offers fascinating testimony to the enduring importance of the sea to our culture."--Nathaniel Philbrick, National Book Award - winning author of "In the Heart of the Sea "From A-1 to Zumwalt this incredible volume covers the waterfront--and all the world's seas and oceans. . . . It is a truly remarkable feat of research and organization and is an invaluable resource for anyone with even a passing interest in nautical history."--Walter Cronkite "A massive compendium of nautical knowledge and maritime minutiae that whets the appetite to learn more. It is loaded with facts and laced with wit and wry humor. This will be a useful resource for any maritime enthusiast--scholar or amateur."--J. Revell Carr, Director Emeritus, Mystic Seaport Museum, and author of "All Brave Sailors "A terrific book--full of information in turns basic, arcane, and playful, all presented here with an authority and humor that I'm sure will appeal to many sailors as well as to lovers of the sea and maritime art and writing. Any nautical book that includes Nelson, Travis McGee, 'close-hauled, 'Belloc, "USS VD, Helen of Troy, the Slot, and skipjacks wins a medal for sweep and imagination.
