Passage Most maps from the fifteenth century have precise latitudes but distorted longitudes. The reason is that
map-makers
, who needed to know the exact time in order to measure longitude, were forced to depend on
notoriously unreliable shipboard clocks. Sea captains, who needed longitude calculations in order to
navigate their ships in open water, were also dependent on these inaccurate clocks. Pendulum clocks
might have been the solution, as they were the best timekeepers on land, but the rolling of a ship at sea
made gravity-based pendulums useless,
Question
The passage implies that fifteenth century map-makers spent much of their time
studying old maps in libraries
making calculations at sea
wiking along sastines
repairing broken docks

answer; ///(a)//the death of his

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
