Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Road Map, of the Stars
The earth is a huge observation car in which we are ceaselessly touring through the stars, while the sublime outlook, north, east, south and west is forever changing at the rate of one degree every four minutes, or I 5 degrees per hour, by the daily rotation Of the earth on its axis; and 30 degrees per month, at a given hour, by the annual revolution of the earth around the sun.
