Here's an example of what you would get from Google Translate for one short section:
"Jérôme Lalande taught us this in his precious Bibliographie astronomique (1803) and Owen Gingerich and Barbara Welther (1983) contextualized this filiation in their tables astronomical data for historical purposes6, from which we have extracted Figure 1.1. However, these authors have not completely woven the threads of this filiation. Furthermore, we must beware of a certain bias that Lalande adopted in his Astronomical Bibliography. In addition, reading the chronicles of the time, such as that of Brice Germain, one of which quote opens this chapter as an epigraph, can be misleading. Germain is indeed making a mistake by attributing to the astronomer royal Jean-Dominique Cassini the paternity of the CDT; it is true that Cassini, first big boss of the Observatory, had the privilege of going each year to present to the King the volume of French ephemerides. What can be reconstructed from this filiation with Kepler's ephemerides? who calculated the first volumes of the CDT? Who produced it and under what conditions? Let's go into the story."

Readable? Somewhat. If you don't know French, you could continue this process in Google Translate, but it might be easier --and more fun!-- to learn French and then come back. :)
