Note
Evans gives David Rittenhouse as the author, but this attribution is improbable. The astronomical notes on the calendar pages, the times for the moon's phases, and the eclipse predictions do not correspond sufficiently with those in Der Gantz neue verbesserte nord-americanische Calender, by Rittenhouse, published at Lancaster.
The Anatomy is the only illustration.
