An impressive collection of navigation books has been acquired by a used
book dealer near me, and although the asking prices are handsome, those of
you who lust for a particular edition should give this a look at
http://oldbooks.com . There is 1791 Moore, 22 of Bowditch from 1811-1866
(including all but one of the Civil War editions), an 1812 Furlong _Coast
Pilot_, and 10 of Blunt's _Coast Pilot_ from 1815-1864.
[I have not done business with this dealer before, nor do I have any
(financial) interest in these books. Just hoping they'll find a new and
loving home, and that one of the decreasing number of brick-and-mortar
booksellers can stay in business.]
