Co-authors William Soler and Albert Ganado presented a copy of their book The Charting of Maltese Waters, A Historical Account to President Emeritus George Abela at San Anton Palace, Attard.

Dr Abela thanked and congratulated the authors on their research work and said the book was another contribution to Melitensia and, in particular, to Maltese nautical cartography.

The book contains about 60 illustrated maps and nautical charts of Malta, both in manu­script and print form, some of which are beautifully drawn, historically significant, attractive and published for the first time.
