BEDOS DE CELLES (François). Practical Gnomonic, or the art of drawing sundials. (...). Second edition. Paris, Delalain, 1774, in-8°, frontispiece, XL-510 p., 38 folding plates, one folding map, full contemporary brown speckled calf (binding worn, front cover split). Without a doubt one of the best general treatises on gnomonics, moreover perfectly illustrated, realized under the patronage of the Academy of Sciences by the erudite and learned Benedictine François de Bedos de Celles (1709-1779). The undoubted advantage of this treatise lies entirely in the clarity of its practice and its exposition, which allow for an easy and meticulous application.
