In this 1874 monograph, James Nasmyth (1808–90) and James Carpenter (1840–99) look closely at the lunar surface, illustrating their work with photographs of accurate plaster models. Among the topics discussed are the possibility of a lunar atmosphere, life on the moon, and the probable causes of its craters.
