Belenky, Jean Otto de Kat, Kostas Spyrou, Naoya Umeda, eds., 2011, Springer ()〕 from Brittany. A former maritime pilot who had lost a leg at Bantry in the 1689 French invasion of Ireland, causing him to leave active maritime service,〔A. Anthiaume, ''Evolution et Enseignement de la Science Nautique'', Paris, 1920〕 he was appointed royal professor of hydrography (the art of navigation and piloting) in charge of the new École d'hydrographie at Le Croisic in June 1691. He was author of a highly regarded treatise on navigation and piloting (''Traité complet de la navigation'', Paris, Guignard, 1698 〔http://vieillemarine.pagesperso-orange.fr/biblio/pages/BouguerJean.htm〕). He would also teach students privately in a one-room school at his home, where he kept many astronomical and navigational instruments. He was well-versed in astronomy, mathematics, and hydrography,〔Ferreiro, Larrie D., ''Measure of the Earth: The Enlightenment Expedition That Reshaped Our World'', Basic Books, 2011〕 and held the certificate of ''Maîtrise d'hydrographe''.〔http://www.springerreference.com/docs/html/chapterdbid/58190.html〕 He had three children with his wife Marie Françoise Josseau, including sons Pierre Bouguer, who succeeded him in his position at Le Croisic and continued the family navigation school, and Jan Bouguer, who took over the family school when his brother left for Paris some years later. ==External links==
