A translation into English by J. Bankston and with the title
Nautical instruction, 1587; for the good use and
management of ships, their design, and conduct in accordance
with the latitude of Mexico.
:c.It is a small quarto of 160 leaves with woodcut diagrams, an
artillery sphere, table of declination and it is divided into
four books, of which Book IV, the last 72 leaves, deals with
naval architecture and rigging and ends with a Vocabulario
de los nombres que usa la gente de la mer.
The text is in the form of a dialogue.
Part of Book IV, is reprinted in Vol. VI of Duro's
Disquisiciones Nauticas, 1881.
Part of this is also reprinted in Artiñano's
Arquitectura Naval Española, 1920 together
with some
of the plans of hulls and sails. The author of this important
work was a native of Santander and studied first for the navy
and later for the Law. His writings whilst Judge of Guatemala
formed the foundation for the works of Antonio de Herrera.
In 1581 he graduated as Doctor of the University of Mexico,
and later helped to organize an expedition against Drake.
He was the author of several works on navigation, of which
this is the most important.
