<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Can anyone recommend key works on 18<sup>th</sup>-20<sup>th</sup> c. astronomical, nautical, and maritime charts, esp as a pre-history to modern information processing? I’m trying to write a history of how
19<sup>th</sup> c. visuality was pieced together at sea, from a patchwork of observations, charts, tables, astrolabes, etc, in which a regime of calculations and information processing figure centrally in making visual sense of the surrounding world.

<p class="xmsonormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">To give a very general idea of where I’m coming from, I’ve found some very useful work in the Campbell-Kelly et al volume on “The History of Mathematical Tables,” and Mindell’s work on naval systems of artillery
control has also been an inspiring point of reference. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
