' The work is extremely rare, and in the Bi itish Museum there is only an imperfect copy of the third edition (of ? 1600). In 

 the dedication to Thomas, Earl of Arundel and Surrey, he describes himself as a stranger to the land and his kinsfolk, many 

 long voyages having banished him from the remembrance of both ; and in the body of the work he speaks incidentally of 

 having sailed with the Hollanders. As a treatise on navigation, the little book has considerable merit ; it strongly con- 

 demns the ' plaine charts ' then in use ; urges the use of the so-called Mercator's charts, the invention of which he correctly 

 attributes to Edward Wright, and discusses at some length the principle of great circle-sailing.' SirJ. K. Laughton.
