| Item Description: | The title pages of Strong's almanacs for 1806 and 1807 published at New Haven identify Strong as the author of those formerly issued under the pseudonym of Hosea Stafford. In comparison with the almanac of the same title published under Strong's name for this year at Hartford, the astronomical notes, eclipse predictions and calendar page calculations are practically identical, the few variations in the latter reflecting the difference in meridian between Hartford and New Haven. "Stafford" includes Strong's characteristic page entitled "Variation of sun and clock." Advertised in the Connecticut journal, New Haven, Nov. 13, 1793. The Anatomy is the only illustration. Electronic resource. |
