Quite by chance I have come across a book rerview - I should call it microfiche review - of an 856 page thesis by Charles H Cotter for a PhD in 1975. The thesis was titled "A History of Nautical Astronomical Tables" and was was published on ten mcrofiche. I did not know that Cotter had a doctorate. As the reviewer asks - Captain Doctor or Doctor Captain?

I am keen to read his thesis as it is about my prime area of interest. Does anyone know if it is available online? I admit that I have not yet tried google.
