N2  - Kitāb‑ı Baḥrīye is the definitive 16th-century Ottoman portolan atlas and navigation manual, authored by Admiral Pîrî Reis. Combining textual sailing advice and detailed portolan charts of the Mediterranean and beyond, it exists in two 16th-century editions and numerous stunning later copies. Modern facsimile editions present both Ottoman Turkish and English content rich with cultural, geographic, maritime, and historical value.
