Book descriptionIve been trying to figure out whether I overestimated my interest in nautical navigation or Barrie just somewhat undersold me on it. To be fair, this is a perfectly decent book, its just my personal preference for nonfiction mostly leans toward a more humorous and amusingly irreverent approach. I am actually genuinely interest in some of the topics covered in the book, such as early explorations, world travels and so on. I have a map of the world hanging on my wall (Mercator Projection) and often marvel at the delicate complexity of the coastlines, imagining the effort it must have taken to find and measure the boundaries of all the lands. Imagine no more, this book addresses the subject pretty thoroughly. The dedicated, brave, driven souls who sailed and surveyed in face of dangers and privation. And Barrie, a sailor himself, knows his subject and is obviously passionate about it, but the focus of the book was firmly on the tools in general and the eponymous sextant in particular it took to navigate the world and so at times its about as exciting as one might expect the book about tools to be. At times positively arid for something with two water bodies within a title. So there was something of a disconnect, an exciting subject told in a non exciting manner. Thoroughly informative, mind you though not necessarily in a way that sticks, overwhelmed more often than not with a variety of facts and copious footnotes. Maybe I just subconsciously expected more from a man whose ancestor wrote one of my all time favorite adventures. I absolutely agree with Barrie about the fact that abandoning traditional methods in favor of the ever increasing reliance on modern technology is alarming and a balance must be found and I find it positively awesome that early Polynesian sailors were able to navigate completely tool free just using the cue from the world around them and, on occasion, their balls. Seriously, talk about ballsy sailing. Now that sounds like a fun book.Sextant: The Elegant Instrument That Guided the Great Explorers, and a Young Mans First Journey Across the Atlantic by David Barrie (Goodreads Author) selling online without signing buy сhapter
