THE MOON: 



CONSIDERED AS A PLANET, A WORLD, AND A SATELLITE. 

 By JAMES NASMYTH, C.E., akd JAMES CARPENTER, F.R.A.S., 



Late of the Royal Observatory, Greenwicb. 



The 24 Illustrations of Lunar Objects, Phonompna, and Scenery, have been produced from 

 Drawiuf^s made with tlic aid of jiowerful Telescopes. 



Nunicroirs "Woodcuts. 4to. 30s. 



"The illustrations to this book are so admirable, so far beyond those one geuerallygctsof any 

 celestial phenomenon, that one is tempted to refer to them first of all. No more truthful or 

 striking representations have ever been laid before his readers, b}' any student of science." 



"But though I have given tbe first place to a general reference to" the illustrations, I by uo 

 means intend thereby to imply that the text is of secondary importance. In fact, the liiore 

 carefully the text is read, tlic more obvious docs it become that Mr. Nasmyth has used his 

 drawings as a means to an end, and that he and Mr. Carpenter between theiu have produced a 

 work which is not only a very beautiful and a ^■ery readable one, but one of some importance." 



"I trust I have said enough to induce all interested in physical problems to peruse tliis book 

 for themselves ; it is altogether an admirable production, and if space pcnnitted, each picture 

 would merit a special paragraph." — J. Norm.\n Lockyer, F.ll.S., in 'Nature,'

" These admirable and vigorous essays reouire few words to introduce and recommend them 

 to the great body of its members. They are all adnurablc in point of style, clearness of argument, 

 and moderation of tone. The three Essays taken together may be fairlv coxisidered as 

 exhaustive of the whole subject, and as furnishing a comi)lcte armoury of defence for future 

 orators and writers." — Standard,
