Extract

This study of fifteenth-century Arab sailing directions for the Indian Ocean is translated from a paper which was published in the July 1974 issue of Navigation, the Journal of the French Institute of Navigation. The spelling of modern place names has been assimilated to that of the Admiralty Charts and Sailing Directions but other Arabic names and terms have been left in the authors' approximate transliteration. Quotations from the Arabic texts are printed in italics.
