Presumed First Edition (no additional printings indicated). Hardcover. No dustjacket. 8vo (8 1/4" X 5 1/2"). 504 pages. From the Preface: This book for beginners in navigation with manual of duties ol a junior officer in the American Merchant Navy seeks to make plain the science and art of the navigator. In simple language the various problems of the young mariner are presented in so far as required by the examiners for first government licence with numerons questions conveniently placed at the ends of chapters; besides setting forth in practical manner the general requirements of the junior officer who with laudable purpose looks forward expectantly to gaining captain's ticket and to fill sucessfully the berth of master of an American ship. Condition External: Moderate shelfwear and light soiling to spine and covers. Some dusting and spotting to page edges. Internal: Hinges are cracked at front but internal binding remains tight and all pages are intact and mostly clean but they are somewhat browned with age. There is some brown staining to endpages. This book was hand printed by letterpress by the author and it shows in the sometimes poor quality of the impression. Overall condition is Good. Full refund if book is not as described. Please add $3.75 for USPS Media Mail (Bookrate) shipping within USA. Priority Mail available upon request with postage based on buyer's zip code (mailed from 33583). I will gladly combine multiple purchases into one shipment to save on postage. AB Bookman's Weekly first proposed in 1949 a set of terms that could serve as a standard for the antiquarian book trade. These terms have been widely adopted as industry standards since then: As New is to be used only when the book is in the same immaculate condition in which it was published. There can be no defects, no missing pages, no library stamps, etc., and the dustjacket (if it was issued with one) must be perfect, without any tears. Fine approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp. For the use of the term Fine there must also be no defects, etc., and if the jacket has a small tear, or other defect, or looks worn, this should be noted. Very Good can describe a used book that does show some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Any defects must be noted. Good describes the average used and worn book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects must be noted. Fair is a worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. (which must be noted). Binding, jacket (if any), etc. may also be worn. All defects must be noted. Poor describes a book that is sufficiently worn that its only merit is as a Reading Copy because it does have the complete text, which must be legible. Any missing maps or plates should still be noted. This copy may be soiled, scuffed, stained or spotted and may have loose joints, hinges, pages, etc.
