Dear Friends, 

the UPDATE n° 03 of digital links of the gnomonical digitized books, is ready 
on my web site

http://www.nicolaseverino.it 

At this time, you can download (for free) directly from my web site 46 first 
english printed gnomonical books!!
Several books are about the gnomonica; other, on mathematics, astronomy, 
navigations, ecc. have a chapter about sundials more or less great (someone 
have oltre 100 pages about sundials!).

This books are very rare and not easy to find in internet, because its are 
accessible only with a membership to the great institutions like EEBO, JSTOR, 
etc...
You can take this first opportunity to download this books for free from my web 
site. Enjoy!
Best wishes, Nicola Severino
