Planetary Journeys And Earthly Sketches is a book written by George Raffalovich and published in 1908. The book is a collection of essays and sketches that explore various topics related to astronomy, including the planets in our solar system, their orbits, and their physical characteristics. Raffalovich also delves into the history of astronomy and the contributions of famous astronomers such as Galileo and Copernicus. In addition to his astronomical musings, Raffalovich includes sketches of various earthly scenes, such as landscapes and cityscapes, providing a unique contrast to his scientific observations. This book is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of a turn-of-the-century astronomer and artist, and provides valuable insight into the development of astronomical knowledge and the role of observation in scientific discovery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
