Excerpt from A Complete Course of Meteorology Soon after the appearance of the original Ger. Man edition, a French translation with notes was published (1843) by M. Man'rms, a philosopher, well acquainted with practical meteorology, having taken the observations at Norway and Spitzbergen, in 1838 and 1839, in the voyage of La Recherche; as also observations at Paris, on the Faulhorn, and elsewhere. In August of the present year he reached the summit of Mont Blanc, in conjunction with his friend M. Baavus: to the latter gentle man we are indebted for several notes in the present volume, he having communicated all the result: that he had time to reduce from the observations of the Commission of the North, and from those made on the Faulhorn. His notes are indicated throughout the work by the letter B; those of M. Maarms, by the letter M. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
