| Item Description: | "Thomas Moore" is a pseudonym. Though attributed by Evans to Theophilus Grew, the almanac was actually calculated by John Nathan Hutchins. The calculations and the astronomical notes on the calendar pages duplicate those in his Hutchin's almanack or ephemeris for 1759, also published by Gaine. The moon's column is omitted. Advertised in the New York Mercury, Nov. 6, 1758. The engraved frontispiece portrait has legend: "Frederick the Third [i.e. Second] the great king of Prussia. J.M. ae. 14 sculp. 1758. Sold by J. Turner, in Arch Street Philadelphia." The relief map is of the siege of Louisbourg. Readex Early American Imprints, Series I: Evans, 1639-1800 |
