Lawrence Letham (author) says:
By profession I am an Electrical Engineer with an avocation of hiking
and exploring. I followed GPS developments for years through technical
papers wondering if someday its power would be available to the common
person. When the day arrived that I could afford my first receiver, I
found that there was little material that related the technical aspects of
GPS to my adventures in the field. I determined to learn everything I
could about GPS navigation and GPS Made Easy is the result. The book
provides step-by-step guidance for using your GPS receiver in real-life
outdoor pursuits.
