Patten's Corrected Edition of Turner's Longitude tables for correcting the observed distance of the moon and sun, or moon and star, for the effects of parallax and refraction, whereby the distance is, in a new and much shorter method, obtained, and the longitude found with as great ease as the latitude by a meridian altitude of the sun. To which are added tables - for the sun's declination from 1811-1826. Tables to correct the sun's declination for any given longitude. Tables sun's right ascension. Tables to find the latitude by the Polar star; with examples by Norie
