George Frederick Chambers
This handbook by George Frederick Chambers (1841–1915), a young and enthusiastic amateur astronomer, became a best-seller soon after its publication in 1861. An indispensable guide, it was one of the most widely read astronomical books of the nineteenth century and is a classic of Victorian writing on popular astronomy.
