A treatise of trigonometry, plane and spherical, theoretical and practical. In which the several cases of plane and spherical triangles are solved, instrumentally and arithmetically. As likewise a Treatise of Stereographic and Orthographic Projection of the Sphere. In which the Principles and Theorems on which they depend, are clearly Demonstrated, and the Practice naturally deduced from those Demonstrations. Illustrated in the Stereographic Projection of the several Cases in Right and Oblique Angled, Spherical, Triangles: So that the Requisites may be found without Calculation, by Scale and Compass. To which is added a correct table of logarithms, sines, tangents and secants. By Sam Heynes, late Reader of the Mathematics to His Majesty's Engineers.

A treatise of navigation: containing, I. The theory of navigation demonstrated; wherein it is proved, that the Nature of the thing called Departure is quite different from that which the Writers upon this Subject took it to be: That Middle-Latitude Sailing is erroneous; and that the common Method of keeping Reckonings in Meridional Distance, is grossly false. II. Nautical problems: Of a single Course, Traverses; of computing the Bearings and Distances of Places. The Use of Mercator's Chart made easy, and a new Method for finding the Bearings of Places upon Charts, without the Confusion of Rhumb-Lines. Of Currents, and how to find them several Ways: Of turning to Windward in Currents, &c. III. Astronomical Problems: Improvements made in the common Sea-Quadrant. The Description of a new Fore-Staff, which is much more accurate and commodious than the common one. The Errors of the Nocturnal shewed and demonstrated. Tables of the Sun's Place, Declination, and Right Ascension. A Table of the most eminent Fixed Stars, contrived in such a manner, as to shew by Inspection, which is the properest Star for Observation, in all Places, and at all Times of the Year. IV. Practical Navigation: Improvements made in the common Sea-Compass. The Description of a new Azimuth-Compass, which is so contrived as to be kept from being disturbed by the Motion of the Ship. How to find the Lee-Way to a great Exactness, and a new and commodious Method of keeping a Sea-Journal. To which is prefixed, by way of Introduction, A succinct Treatise of Plain Trigonometry. By Joseph Harris, teacher of the mathematicks.
