BARNES MEMORIAL LIBRARY OF THE NAVAL HISTORY SOCIETY NAVAL HISTORY SOCIETY NEW YORK 1915 5 K-ios ^^ THE SECRETARY OF THE NAVAL HISTORY SOCIETY CERTIFIES THAT THIS COPY OF THE CATALOGUE OF THE BARNES MEMORIAL LIBRARY IS NO. A.i.i OF EIGHT HUNDRED COPIES, PRINTED FOR THE SOCIETY ONLY D% FOREWORD. AFTER serving with great distinction throughout the - Civil War, Captain John Sanford Barnes, U. S. N., a graduate of Annapolis of the Class of '53, resigned the Service and took up the business career in which he was to prove himself so eminently successful. In the spare moments of a very active life he began forming the collection of books, manuscripts, autograph letters, prints and other memorabilia that are recounted in this catalogue. At first he merely sought a recreation in gathering together the nucleus of this library, but in his later years the extending and enlarging of it became no longer a pastime but a life work. In November, 191 1 , death interrupted this labor of over forty years to which Captain Barnes had given such devoted care and fore- thought. No more fitting memorial could be imagined than that this collection should be kept together in the pos- session of the Naval History Society, to form, again, the nucleus of a still larger and more important library and collection. Captain Barnes was the Society's first President and one of its founders; it was his great desire to see it realize its aims and ambitions and attain a per- manent position. In presenting to the Society the "Barnes Memorial Library," his eldest son, James Barnes, — acting in com- plete accord with the other surviving children and heirs of Captain Barnes — has felt that he was but carrying out the wish that lay nearest to his father's heart.

First Edition, 1635. Illustrations and Maps. 4*0. Full brown morocco gilt, edges gilt, fine copy. The folding map in this copy is a facsimile of the excessively rare and original. Luke Foxe was a native of Hull, born there in 1586, and dying at Whitby in 1635, in lamentable neglect, after an arduous life as a sailor and Arctic Explorer. In 1629, acting under the patronage of Henry Briggs, Professor of Geometry at Oxford, and Sir J. Brooke, he petitioned the King for "a small supply of money towards a discovery of a passage by the North-West to the South Sea," and in response a pinnance of 70 tons burden was placed at his disposal, in which he set forth in the following year. The results of the voyage, which lasted about six months, are described in the foregoing work, which must always be regarded as one of the most interesting and important contributions to the history of Arctic exploration.

This most excellent and useful Performance, doth not only produce the true Latitude at any Time between Nine o'Clock in the Morning, and Three in the Afternoon ; but also gives the true Time of the Day, when the greatest Altitude was taken, to twenty Seconds by the Tables; and if a greater Degree of Accuracy is required, the same may be done by taking proportional Parts. Whence the Sun's Azimuth may be determined by one single Proportion. To Which Is Added A Complete Theory, Illustrating the Rationale of this most useful Discovery.
