Alternative names
- No but this is extremely important: THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT JAMES L. FARRELLs.
- The picture just submitted is for the author of just two of the books you noted,
- Integrated Aircraft Navigation (1976) and GNSS Aided Navigation and Tracking (2007). This is sure to be confusing, but I also have another book "Nuts & Bolts of Christianity"
- published in 2005.
