Glen,
Interesting book and articles
I would have thought the skies anywhere in the world during the mid 19th century would be “virgin skies”
Thanks for posting
It seems that Dunlop was not exactly held in high esteem by his fellow astronomers of the time.
On a side note , my wife and I just returned home after being abroad for 2 months ( UK and Malta )
Visited the Royal Greenwich Observatory in London which was fascinating
Some photos attached
Cheers
Martin
