These nautical works - pilot guides and charts - were published by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office which provides the necessary hydrographic and marine geospatial data to all kinds of maritime organisations across the world. The publications are not only used by the British Royal Navy but can also be found on board the majority of international merchant ships. The data provided in the pilot guides and other publications are compliant with SOLAS the Safety of Life at Sea treaty guidelines and are updated constantly in weekly "Notices to mariners" and supplements to and new editions of the pilot guides whenever necessary.The present copy is the 10th edition 1955 of the pilot guide with sailing directions and other information on the weather currents radar ranges etc. relating to the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden including the supplement issued in 1957. It includes an erroneous "advertisement to the eight edition" by the Hydrographer of the Navy Rear-Admiral Kenneth St Barbe Collins 1904-1982. The advertisement states that with the publication of "the ninth edition" presumably this volume the previous edition and its supplements are cancelled since the most up-to-date information has been compiled in the new edition and the weekly "Notices to mariners" that appeared after the publication of the 11th edition. The 10th edition of 1955 and its 1957 supplement were made redundant with the publication of the 11th edition in 1967. Each subsequent edition of the pilot supersedes the last which have appeared infrequently depending on newly available information from the mid-19th century until the present day.The front paste-down and recto of the first free endpaper contain a "caution" notice and room for the notation of "supplements and annual summaries of notices to mariners relating to this book" the first two pages are printed on red-pink paper. The binding shows minor signs of wear around the spine and corners of the boards the gutter after page II is somewhat weakened the head edge of the wrappers of the supplement are very slightly browned.

1710rif. ABC_46964The Netherlands 1710. Contemporary flexible paperboards. Folio 33.5 x 21.5 cm. With more than 300 mathematical figures and illustrations mainly full- half- and quarter-circle diagrams. The Dutch text is written in a clearly legible 18th-century cursive hand in brown ink. Early 18th-century Dutch manuscript on the art of navigation based on Klaas de Vries Schat-kamer ofte konst der stuurlieden . 1702. De Vries taught mathematics in Amsterdam his work proved very popular and appeared in numerous editions between 1702 and 1818. The author of the present manuscript unknown but was most likely a student of mathematics possibly even a student of De Vries himself at the beginning of the 18th century.The manuscript deals with several subjects regarding navigation including many different calculations for calendars for example the golden number the tides and determining the time at night. Furthermore theories and examples of correcting compass declination and determining the time of sunrise and sunset from the declination of the sun in combination with the pole star map reading and course calculation. It ends with approximately 50 sample problems in trigonometry and geometry showing the student author's mathematical work.Binding soiled edges frayed lacking the first 7 leaves quires 3 and 5 detached. With several ink stains the ink has bled through some leaves. Otherwise in good condition. An interesting manuscript on navigation probably from a Dutch student ca. 1702/13.l For De Vries's work: The Crone library 374 1st ed 1702. hardcover

Supplement No. 7 - 1977 to Red Sea and Gulf of Aden pilot eleventh edition 1967 corrected to 4th March 1977 Whenever reference is made to the pilot this supplement must be consulted.London United Kingdom Hydrographic Office 1977.

1735rif. LC4E9Q4RAGZBHolland 1735. Green paper wrappers made from a discarded prospectus or the wrapper of an instalment of a book ca. 1865 sewn at 6 stations some perhaps without supports later green cloth spine with the title in manuscript on the front wrapper. Folio 31.5 x 20.5 cm. A manuscript course in navigation written in brown ink on laid paper in a largely upright cursive hand with 6 colour figures including 2 volvelles about 100 black and white diagrams and numerous tables of data highlighted with a yellow wash. A detailed manuscript course in the art of navigation in folio format with figures in colour including two volvelles partly based on the very rare first edition in 8vo format of Klaas de Vries 1662-1730 Schat-kamer ofte konst der stier-lieden 1702; Crone 374 probably in the first issue not known to survive before the insertion of an additional quire between B and C. But the manuscript doesn't merely copy the printed book: at least much of the text differs and also at least some of the tabular data and some of the figures also have no direct equivalents in the printed book also not in later editions as far as we have seen. The colour illustrations include a compass rose 13.8 cm diameter with a ship in the centre directly copied from the folding engraved plate in De Vries and virtually the same size but the ship in the centre is copied in mirror image and De Vries's abstract floral decorations in the corners outside the circle are replaced by colour drawings of four different flowers one in each corner. The manuscript also directly copies De Vries's woodcut illustration of a human hand marked with the numbers "29" "9" and "19" on the thumb and the letters A B and C next to them presented as an aid to calculating the epact the number of days past the new moon on 1 January but the hand is rotated 180 degrees. Most of the examples of calculations use years in the period 1700-1711 though there are a few later ones one example uses the year 1809! which also largely agrees with the 1702 edition of De Vries though the examples are not identical. The clearest indication that the present manuscript follows the 1702 edition rather than a later one is that the tables giving differences between the positions of the sun and moon cover the years 1701-1704 as in the first edition before the insertion of an extra quire extending the tables to 1710 B8 was replaced at the same time not noted by Crone. All later editions we have seen give these tables and the examples of calculations for later years. Yet even in these tables the data in the present manuscript doesn't exactly agree with De Vries's. With a bookseller's ticket ca. 1901/1919. Very slightly browned with occasional minor spots or ink stains but still in good condition. The one leaf that appears to be lacking may have been deliberately cancelled by the compiler. The wrapper has a later cloth spine as noted and is somewhat worn. A fascinating manuscript course in navigation with volvelles and other figures in colour partly based on the very rare first 1702 edition of De Vries's handbook but not merely copying it.l For De Vries's 1702 handbook: Crone 374 collation not entirely correct. hardcover

1839rif. 331758London: Smith Elder and Co 1839. Softcover. Good. First edition. Octavo. Disbound. 49pp. folding map. Lacking wrappers; title page and folding map detached from sewing; good. A scarce report establishes an early point for the English empire's interest in establishing a steam boat line in India and the methods by which they proposed to go about doing so. Commercial manufacturers and various merchants from Manchester Liverpool and India were enlisted to support the proposal and the report outlines navigational routes estimations of cost and the enthusiasm of changing maritime trading methods up and down the Ganges. The idea for an East India Inland Steam Navigation Company apparently began percolating in 1837 and this report fits nicely within the small pantheon of material devoted to this literature.
