Tables Showing the Approximate Magnetic Direction and Ordinary Rate (at Spring & Neaps) of the Tidal Streams in the Dover Straits, and from an Offing

By S.H. Brown

Book Overview

"Tables Showing the Approximate Magnetic Direction and Ordinary Rate (at Spring & Neaps) of the Tidal Streams in the Dover Straits" is a meticulously detailed maritime reference, originally published in 1894. Prepared by S H Brown, this historical document provides invaluable data for navigating the challenging waters of the Dover Straits and the southern coast of England.

The tables offer approximate magnetic directions and the ordinary rate of tidal streams, accounting for both spring and neap tides. With information covering 27 positions along the South Coast of England, ranging from 3 to 20 miles offshore, the resource enables mariners to estimate tidal conditions for every half-hour of the tide at Dover.

This book stands as a testament to the era of detailed hydrographic surveying and is of significant interest to maritime historians, navigators, and anyone fascinated by the historical methods of seafaring.
