About

Divided into four parts, Reverand Timothy Harley investigates Moon spots: 'it is mythological and mirthsome', Moon Worship: 'to show that anthropomorphism and sexuality have been the principle factors in that idolatry which in all ages has paid homage to the hosts of heaven', Moon Superstitions: lunar fancies, eclipses and influences, and Moon Inhabitation: a literary essay 'presenting in nuce the present state of the enigma of "the plurality of worlds".

With eight line illustrations interspersed throughout the chapters, this ebook provides readers with fascinating lunar lore.
