Astronomy for amateurs
Camille Flammarion's popular astronomy manual, translated by Frances A. Welby and issued by D. Appleton in New York in 1904 for general readers without mathematics. Wood-engraved night skies, eclipse-lit battle scenes, reproduced sixteenth-century woodcuts of sky portents, and a pen diagram charting comet returns supply star fields, dense black hatching, and naive celestial symbols.
