By Algernon F.R. De Horsey

Book Overview

Draysonia is a book written by Algernon de Horsey in 1911 that attempts to explain and popularize the system of the second rotation of the Earth as discovered by A.W. Drayson. The book explores Drayson's theory that the Earth has a second rotation, which is responsible for the precession of the equinoxes and the changes in the positions of the stars over time. De Horsey delves into the history of astronomy and the various theories that have been proposed to explain these phenomena before introducing Drayson's groundbreaking discovery. The book also discusses the practical applications of Drayson's theory, particularly in the field of navigation. Overall, Draysonia offers a fascinating and thought-provoking look at one of the most intriguing scientific discoveries of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
