500 |a "Isaac Bickerstaff" is a common pseudonym in almanacs. 
500 |a Erroneously attributed by Evans to Benjamin West. The actual calculator was Nathan Daboll. The preface is a briefer version of that in his New England almanac and gentlemen and ladies' diary for 1800 (New London). The eclipse predictions are virtually identical, and most of the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages parallel each other. The calculations for the moon are identical throughout. The others vary to a degree reflecting the difference in meridian between New London and Providence. 
500 |a West and Carter, the publisher, severed relations with the 1781 issue. West's almanac was published thereafter at Providence by Bennett Wheeler as the North American calendar, while Carter continued the New England almanack over the Bickerstaff pseudonym, with which West is often identified.
