Description
-
Printed for A. Wilde London, 1764 [Rare] N [Book] The weather is an important influence on everyday life, including agriculture and trade. This is why instructions about how to predict weather were highly valued. Advice on weather prediction was published in educational and instructional manuals. Although this book sells itself as the ‘newest’ and ‘best’ and includes references to Francis Bacon, it is still steeped in weatherlore. It lists how different animal behaviours can indicate the arrival of certain types of weather.
