A Compendious System of Astronomy: In a Course of Familiar Lectures - Cambridge Library Collection - Astronomy

Touching on optics, gravity, trigonometry and a host of other astronomical ideas, this collection of ten lectures was originally written for the young women under the tutelage of the author. Although the practice of introducing girls to science was controversial, the work was published in 1797 to wide acclaim.
