- Norwood, Matthew. The seamans companion, being a plain guide to the understanding of arithmetick, geometry, trigonometry, navigation, and astronomy. Applied chiefly to navigation: and furnished with a table of meridional parts, to every third minute: with excellent and easie ways of keeping a reckoning at sea, never in print before. Also, a catalogue of the longitude and latitude of the principal places in the world: with other useful things. The second edition corrected and amended. By Matthew Norwood, mariner. London: printed by A[ndrew]. C[larke]. for Dixy Page at the Anchor and Mariner entring into East-Smithfield, and Benjamin Hurlock over atainst St. Magnus Church on London-Bridge, near Thames-street, 1671. ESTC No. R181086. Grub Street ID 71856.

London: [print]ed by Anne Godbid, and John Playford, for William Fisher, at the Postern-Gate near Tower-Hill; Robert Boulter, at the Turks-Head and Ralph Smith, at the Bible in Cornhill; Thomas Passinger, at the Three Bibles on London-Bridge; and Richard Northcot, next St Peter's-Alley in Cornhill, and at the Anchor and Mariner, on Fishstreet-Hill, [1678].

- Norwood, Matthew. Norwood's system of navigation: teaching the whole art, in a way more familiar, easie, and practical, than hath been hitherto done. Shewing, the projection of the plain scale: the sphere in plaino: astronomical problems useful in navigation: traverse tables: right lin'd triangles, geometrically, by tables of sines, tangents, logarithms, and by Gunter's ruler; applied to Plain and Mercator's sailing. Illustrated by schemes on copper-plates. How to make observations at sea or shore. Sure and easie ways of reckoning by latitude, longitude, and meridional distance; with tables ... Spherical triangles; and their use in great circle sailing. The use of the globes, azimuth compass for variation. And also of sea-gunnery. The description and use of a new instrument, called Encyclologium, or the sliding circles; which, with ease, resolves all questions of proportion, trigonometry, arithmetick, square and cube root, gunnery, mensuration, and dyalling. By Matthew Norwood, teacher of Mathematical arts. London: printed for H. Sawbridge, T. Wall, T. Guy, T. Parkhurst, J. Robinson, H. White, T. Malthus, and C. Conyers, 1685. ESTC No. R236205.

Illustrated by schemes on copper-plates. How to make observations at sea or shore. Sure and easie ways of reckoning by latitude, longitude, and meridional distance; with tables for both ways of sailing. The longitude and latitude of principal places. Tables for the suns place and declination; of the longitudes, latitudes, declinations, right ascensions, and seasons of some noted stars. Spherical triangles; and their use in great circle sailing. The use of the globes, Azimuth compass for variation. And also of sea-gunnery. The description and use of a new instrument, called Encyclolgium, or the s. London: printed for H.
