| Item Description: | Hutchins died in 1782, and the calculator of the present almanac is Andrew Beers. The calculations in the ephemeris and for the moon's rising and setting, and the astronomical and horological notes on the calendar pages (with a few additions) are identical with those in his Beers's almanac and ephemeris for 1796, published at Hartford. The other calculations vary to a degree reflecting the difference in meridian between Hartford and New York. An advertisement for Beers's surveying business appears on pages [34]. The Anatomy is the only illustration. Printer's advertisement, pages [34]. Reproduction of original from Boston Public Library. Electronic resource. |
