Publisher's Synopsis
""The Azimuths of Celestial Bodies"" is a book written by George Washington Littlehales in 1902. The book is a comprehensive guide to determining the azimuths of celestial bodies whose declinations range from 24 degrees to 70 degrees. It provides detailed information about the methods used to calculate the azimuths of these bodies for parallels of latitude extending up to 70 degrees from the equator. The book is a valuable resource for astronomers, navigators, and other professionals who require precise measurements of celestial bodies for their work. It is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific aspect of the topic. The author provides detailed explanations of the mathematical formulas used to calculate the azimuths of celestial bodies, as well as practical examples to help readers understand the concepts.Overall, ""The Azimuths of Celestial Bodies"" is a well-written and informative book that provides valuable insights into the field of astronomy and navigation. It is a must-read for anyone interested in these subjects and is still relevant today, more than a century after its initial publication.Assisted By Frank Gustave Radelfinger, J. W. Froley, C. C.
