Mars And Its Canals is a book written by Percival Lowell in 1911. The book is a detailed study of the planet Mars, its geography, and the possibility of life on the planet. Lowell was a well-known astronomer and a proponent of the idea that Mars was inhabited by intelligent beings who had built a network of canals to transport water from the polar ice caps to the arid regions of the planet. The book presents Lowell's observations and theories about the canals, their construction, and their purpose. The author also discusses the geological features of Mars, such as its craters, mountains, and valleys. Lowell's work was controversial at the time and sparked a debate among scientists about the existence of the canals and the possibility of life on Mars. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in astronomy, planetary science, and the history of scientific discovery.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1911 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
