A 1583 French navigation treatise published in Paris by Gilles Beys, written by Nicolas de Nicolay and Alexander Lindesey, describing a Scottish king's voyage round his realm and the Hebrides and Orkneys for sailors and pilots. Its pages carry printed compass roses, wind-direction diagrams, a folding scale of leagues, and a decorative woodcut headpiece above a dedication. A designer could draw on the radiating star-like compass roses, the dense wind-line geometry, and the ornamental strapwork of the heading.
