William Puddicombe (Male)
Genre: Education, Genre: Practical Arts/Useful Knowledge
The mariner’s instructor: Being an easy and expeditious method, whereby a master may teach the art of navigation in a short time: design’d chiefly for those persons who cannot spare more time in learning it than is absolutely necessary. Containing the gregorian or new calendar: the description and use of the plain and gunter’s scale; geometrical problems: plain, traverse, and mercator’s sailing. Parallel, middle latitude, oblique, and current sailing: rules an directions to work an observation: the method of finding the variation of the compass by the sun’s azimuth and amplitude. Together with the plain and Mercator’s charts, with directions how to prick them: as also the method of keeping a journal at sea: with rules and directions for correcting the dead-reckoning by an observation. To which are added tables of logarithms and logarithmic sines and tangents; and a useful figure for the more readily working a day’s work to be enter’d in a journal. By William Puddicombe of Topsham.
Classmark: J.7.8.

Robert Gibson (Male, died c.1761)
Genre: Practical Arts/Useful Knowledge
A treatise of practical surveying; which is demonstrated from its first principles. Wherein every thing that is useful and curious in that art is fully considered and explained. Particularly four new and very concise methods to determine the areas of right-lined figures arithmetically, or by calculation, as well as the geometrical ones heretofore treated of; with two other new geometrical methods much more accurate and ready than any of the former, never before made public. Also the method of tracing defaced mearings from the down (or any other) survey. Very useful to persons who have any property in land, to lawyers in controverted surveys, and to practical surveyors. The whole illustrated with copper-plates. By Robert Gibson, teacher of the mathematics.
Classmark: P.5.13.
