Good morning Frank,
Would you please also send the first pages with the almanac instructions ? I just want to understand the some of the reference points on the daily pages.
I am also reading some information in Spanish about the history of the Spaniard's almanacs at those dates. Something interesting is that they used the meridian of the port of Cadiz as a zero reference rather than Greenwich.
Thanks !!
