Abstract
WE are glad to be able to state that the twenty-eight illustrations in this book are better than those in the companion volume on the “Stars,” by the same author. Mr. Chambers has contrived to compress an immense amount of information within a small compass, and his descriptions possess the double quality of simplicity and attractiveness. We do not know of a book in which so much is told about the solar system within such narrow limits.
