Hi Mark and List, I should have been a bit more accurate in my labeling the book the first on the subject. Your cites are correct, Mark. What would have been more accurate would have been if I said I wanted to read the first "Catalog of Meteorites". Published 1825, a few years before good ole Ernst's demise. Here is the cite:
Chladni, E. F. F. (1825), E. F. F. Chladni's Beschreibung seiner Sammlung vom Himmel herabgefallener Massen. Nebst einigen allgemeinen Bemerkungen von Ebendemselben, Heft 2, Archiv fur die gesammte Naturlehre, pp. 200-240 Best regards, Guido -----Original Message----- >From: Mark Grossman <[email protected]> >Sent: Sep 21, 2010 4:06 PM >To: [email protected], Steve Dunklee <[email protected]>, >[email protected], [email protected] >Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Stranded on a Large Island - With a DryLake >Bed on It > >I thought Chladni wrote 2 books on meteorites - one in 1794 and another in >1819 if my memory serves me correctly. > >Which "first book" on meteorites was written in 1825? > >Mark > >Mark Grossman >Briarcliff Manor, NY > > > >----- Original Message ----- >From: <[email protected]> >To: "Steve Dunklee" <[email protected]>; <[email protected]>; ><[email protected]> >Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2010 6:24 PM >Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Stranded on a Large Island - With a DryLake >Bed on It > > >> Chladni's "Meteorites".
