Lectures on the science of astronomy, explanatory and demonstrative
Lectures on the science of astronomy, written and self-published by David Young in Morristown, New Jersey, in 1821 for lecture audiences and general readers learning celestial mechanics. The images gathered here are not diagrams but the book's surfaces: brown ink and liquid stains spreading across laid paper, and marbled endpapers in ochre, black and tan spots beside a leather board edge, usable as textures, backgrounds and blot shapes.
