Edward Joseph Lowe was a renowned English botanist, meteorologist and astronomer, who published papers on a wide variety of subjects, including meteorology, luminous meteors, sunspots, the zodiacal light, meteorological observations during the eclipse of 1860, conchology, ferns, grasses and other plants.
A seriously lovely read with some seriously lovely art. Mostly picked this up for testing out some archival restoration processes, but it made for lovely relaxation as well.
