About this Book Scan
Carefully scanned in full colour from our original printing of the 1904 first edition thus.
Astrology for All Part II (1908) by Alan Leo was a further major expansion of the book originally published as Casting the Horoscope in 1899 and revised and expanded as Astrology for All Part II in 1904. The 1908 edition adds more than 100 pages of new material to that of 1904 and was the blueprint for all later reprints.
The slimmer editions of 1899 and 104 are also available as downloads from Astrolearn. It can be of historical interest and value to compare all three in order to see what contents were added by Leo at what stage and thereby gain insights into the development of his educational thinking during the 1900s.
