Sinossi

Excerpt from Celestial Objects for Common Telescopes

None but an eye-witness of the wonder and glory of the heavens can thoroughly understand how much they lose by description, or how inadequate an idea of them can be gathered in the usual mode, from books and lectures. It is but the narrative of the traveller instead of the direct impression of the scene. To do justice to this noble science, - to appreciate as we ought the magnificent testimony which it bears to the eternal Power and Godhead of Him Who by His excellent wisdom made the heavens,' we must study it, as much as may be, not with the eyes of others, but with our own.
