The Story of the Solar System
George Frederick Chambers
Take a tour outward from the sun, planet by planet, as astronomy knew them a century ago: scorched Mercury, cloud-wrapped Venus, red Mars, giant Jupiter, and the swarm of minor planets between. George Chambers keeps it brisk and clear for the armchair stargazer. A tidy guided walk through our cosmic neighborhood. Set out from the sun and keep going.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
