History of solar astronomy

Post by Andy Devey »

Hi Guys, I have been a collector of books on solar astronomy for quite a few years and an very interested in historical research. I have compiled a list on my website of solar astronomy books. What may interest you is that there are quite a number of the older books available to view for free on line! As I discover more I add the web link to my list. I any one has any further additions to go one the list please let me know.

I hope you find this useful

Regards

Andy
