Perfect Christmas Book for the Celestial Navigator
#1
Sextant - David Barrie

This one line made the whole read worthwhile.

"It is time to rediscover the joys of celestial navigation, not merely as a safety net, but because using a sextant to find our way puts us in the closest possible touch with the natural world at its most sublime. "


We use the universe to find our place in it.

Thanks Jack for the suggestion. I read Sextant last year and very much enjoyed it. The quote you provided is, I think, what we all know but don't speak about as the subject of CelNav and what we're sighting off of is sublime touching the eternal and almost infinite nature of Creation and He who made it all.

All well said.
