About this Book Scan

Carefully scanned in full colour from our original 1867 printing.

Medicine and Astrology by Henry Phillips was the transcript of a short historical research paper on medical astrology read before the Antiquarian Society of Philadelphia in 1866. It was printed and published the year after the talk. The low price of our scan reflects the brevity of the paper. Originals are nonetheless rare.
