Eclipses, Past and Future, With General Hints for Observing the Heavens

Paperback (Forgotten Books Sept. 21, 2012)
On after thoughts, my plan was to abridge both works, and publish them under the title of Eclipses, Past and Future; with General Hints for Observing the Heavens With the solar eclipse of 1870 a considerable interest was kindled as to such phsenomena, not a little correspondence passed on the subject in the scientific journals, and there were several inquiries about the next solar eclipse that would be total in this country. This led to certain communications to the Times by Mr. Hind in 1871 and 1872. In the first part of the following little work, notices of the eclipses are collected from the earliest days to the present time. A selection may be made from them by those who wish to compute from the tables of Leverrier and Hansen.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
