Outlines of a Mechanical Theory of Storms is a book written by T. Bassnett and published in 1854. The book outlines a theory of how storms are formed and provides practical instructions to navigators on how to avoid them. The author claims that lunar influence plays a significant role in the formation of storms, and he presents evidence to support this theory. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of the theory. The first chapter provides an overview of the theory, while the second chapter discusses the influence of the moon on the tides. The third chapter explains how the moon affects the atmosphere, and the fourth chapter discusses the formation of clouds. The fifth chapter provides practical advice to navigators on how to avoid storms, and the final chapter offers a summary of the theory and its implications. Overall, Outlines of a Mechanical Theory of Storms is a fascinating and informative book that offers a unique perspective on the science of meteorology.To Enable Him Approximately To Calculate The Coming Changes Of The Wind And Weather, For Any Given Day, And For Any Part Of The Ocean.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
