Publisher's Synopsis
A New System of Chronology is a book written by James Nicolson and published in 1793. The book presents a new method of measuring time and organizing historical events based on astronomical observations and calculations. Nicolson argues that the traditional systems of chronology, such as the Julian calendar and the Christian era, are flawed and inaccurate. He proposes a new system that is based on the movements of the sun, moon, and stars, and which he believes is more precise and reliable. The book includes detailed explanations of the astronomical principles behind the new system, as well as examples of how it can be applied to various historical events. Nicolson's work was influential in the development of modern chronology and timekeeping, and his ideas continue to be studied and debated by historians and astronomers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
