About this Book Scan

Carefully scanned in full colour from our original printing purchased in the 2000s.

Eland’s Tutor to Astrology was George Parker’s revised and expanded edition of what was originally a brief pocket-book on natal astrology published in the 1650s. Parker incorporated many changes of his own to the original text and must therefore be considered the co-author of this edition, which was enduringly popular in the 18th century
