A Popular Treatise, on the Science of Astrology, Embracing all that is Requisite for erecting a Horoscope, and resolving a Horary Question. New York: T. J. Coowen.

This treatise is prepared by a gentleman who has given many year's attention to the subject. It is not to be classed with the Oracula and Napoleon-Books of fate, but is a straight-forward analysis and exposition of the Science of Astrology. The name of Lord Bacon, the last great avowed adherent of the belief, casts a certain interest on the subject even at this distant day.
