The Ancient Art of Landfinding in the Pacific
Went to my old college library yesterday in not-very-optimistic search of inspiration on cartography and navigation. Found more goodies than you can shake a stick at. The one I wanted badly enough to carry it home was:
We, the Navigators: The Ancient Art of Landfinding in the Pacific
by David Lewis, University of Hawaii Press :)
ISBN 0824815823.
Not sure how easy or affordable it would be through bookshops, but it looks FANTASTIC!
You can expect nuggets from it to crop up in fics by an entirely different, much less respectable monkey.
