The Mysteries of Chronology is a book written by Forster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot in the year 1900. The book is a detailed investigation into the history of chronology and the different methods used to measure time. The author proposes a new English era called the Victorian era, which he believes should begin in the year 1837, the year Queen Victoria ascended to the throne.Arbuthnot explores various historical events and their dating discrepancies, including the reigns of kings and queens, the birth and death of famous individuals, and the dating of important religious events. He also delves into the history of different calendars, including the Julian and Gregorian calendars, and their impact on chronology.The author argues that the current system of dating events is flawed and proposes a new method of chronology that is more accurate and consistent. He also discusses the importance of chronology in historical research and the need for a standardized system of dating events.Overall, The Mysteries of Chronology is a fascinating exploration of the history of timekeeping and the challenges of accurately dating historical events. It is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of chronology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
