Moon Lore (The Victorian Collection of Myths, Folklore, Superstitions and Whimsy from all Lands) - Illustrated beautiful moon pictures
Timothy Harley Moon Lore by Timothy HarleyThe Victorian Collection of Moon Lore: Myths, Folklore, Superstitions and Whimsy from all Lands.This eBook was written just eighty-four years before Neil Armstrong stepped on the moon. Although contemporary astronomers had fairly well wrapped up the question of whether there was water and air on the moon, Harley still suspected that the moon was inhabited. However, there was still much that was unknown about the moon until the first probes were crash-landed on it (for instance, whether the surface was covered with vast, deep layers of dust). So we shouldn't feel too smug, even though we've played golf there. The universe will continue to surprise us. **This kindle edition is special to include the beautiful moon pictures for the reader to more enjoy reading.**Each chapter has the linkage for easy navigation.All chapters are including:MOON SPOTS.1.
