The British telescope : being an ephemeris of the coelestial motions, with an almanack for the year of our Lord 1730. Being the second after bissextile or leap year containing both the heliocentrick and geocentrick motions of the planets, together with their latitudes and aspects, both mutual and lunar. Amplify'd with astrological observations ... the four quarters of the year, the eclipses, and other material configurations of the planets; being furnished with diverse useful tables, too tedious to be here enumerated, and all other necessaries fit and commodious for such a work. Calculated according to art, and referr'd to the meridian of London, metropolis of Great Britain; ... to the latitude of 53 degrees north; from new ... never yet published; which are so correct and fit for navigation, that the longitude (by help thereof) may be discover'd to one degree.
