Thermometrical navigation
Being a series of experiments and observations, tending to prove, that by ascertaining the relative heat of the sea-water from time to time, the passage of a ship through the Gulph Stream, and from deep water into soundings, may be discovered in time to avoid danger, although (owing to tempestuous weather,) it may be impossible to heave the lead or observe the heavenly bodies -

Thermometrum magnum
or, grand standard thermometer. Expressing all degrees of heat and cold, from that with which Mercury boils, to that which congeals it into solid Metal. To which are adjusted the celebrated scales of Sir Isaac Newton, Fahrenheit, De L'Isle, and Reaumur, for comparing observations made in every part of the globe, and in all Degrees of Temperature in the Air, or any other Bodies. The whole delineated on, and illustrated by, a large copper-plate. By Benjamin Martin
