Ads for Smith, Elder publications on the back wrapper. Herschel (1792-1871), the great astronomer and mathematician, was also the president of the Windsor and Eton Public Library. Here, in his first lecture to the subscribers, Herschel seeks ways to "improve the standard of moral and intellectual culture in the mass of the people."
