""New Method of Correcting Lunar Distances: And Improved Method of Finding the Error and Rate of a Chronometer by Equal Altitudes"" is a book written by William Chauvenet and published in 1868. The book provides a comprehensive guide to correcting lunar distances and finding the error and rate of a chronometer using equal altitudes. Lunar distances were used by navigators to determine their position at sea, and this book offers a new and improved method for this process. The author explains the principles and techniques involved in correcting lunar distances, and provides practical examples for readers to follow. Additionally, the book offers a detailed explanation of how to find the error and rate of a chronometer using the method of equal altitudes. This method involves observing the altitude of a celestial body at two different times, and using the difference in these altitudes to calculate the time elapsed between the observations. Overall, ""New Method of Correcting Lunar Distances: And Improved Method of Finding the Error and Rate of a Chronometer by Equal Altitudes"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in navigation or timekeeping in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
