Thanks, Russell, for this one! I checked it out (BTW, for some reason
my browser didn't sync up correctly and I had to use
http://www.nima.mil/Navigation/ to access the "book") and as best I
can tell, the appendix section "Long-Term Alamanac", was dropped from
this edition. I'll check my copy of the current Bowditch later today
to be sure but I'm not surprised. The current edition was cut back to
one volume from the two volumes published until recently. Damn bean
counters!!! Anyway, this is all the more reason to look for older
editions of Bowditch, eh?
