Divided into tvvo bookes. Hereunto are added (beside an institution in the art of navigation) new tables of the declination of the sunne, according to Tycho Brahes observations, applied to the meridian of Amsterdam. Together with new tables and instructions to teach men the right use of the North starre, and other fixed starres, profitable for all seafaring men. By William Iohnson.
