(EARLY AMERICAN IMPRINT.) Samuel Clough. Kalendarium Nov-Anglicanum, or An Almanack of the Coelestial Motions for . . . 1705. Astronomical diagram. [16 of 24] pages. 12mo, disbound; lacking the final 4 leaves, moderate dampstaining, a few early manuscript notations; uncut. Boston: B. Green for Benjamin Eliot, 1705 [1704]
Clough issued annual almanacs in Boston from 1700 to 1708, with an anonymous competitor publishing the "N. England Kalendar" from 1703 to 1706. Clough's introduction denounces this competitor at length, after enduring their mockery of his astronomical calculations. Drake 2918; Evans 1153. 6 examples in ESTC. We trace only one other Clough almanac sold at auction since 1921 (Swann, 16 April 2019, lot 3).
