  • "In this book Dr. Armitage retells the story of the life and work of William Herschel, the self-taught amateur astronomer who rose from obscurity to world-fame, almost literally in a night, and whose achievements opened a new era in astronomical optics. The author gives an outline of Herschel's life and deals in detail with his scientific achievements, including his invention of an improved more effective telescope."
