Excerpt from The Astronomical Register, Vol. 14
We scarcely expected that a new edition of this valuable work would have been so soon required; and we think with its author, that the welcome extended to it may be taken as evidence of a remarkable increase during the last few years of interest in scientific subjects. For those who have not seen the first edition, we may state that the volume con tains five chapters I. Transits of the seventeenth century II. Transit of 1761 III. Transit of 1769 IV. Transits and their conditions; V. Transits of 1874 and 1882. There are six tables, twenty plates, and forty-four woodcuts praise of all which is now superfluous.
