    Dear George,

    > Alex gave an excellent summary about lunars, in which he wrote-

    It is a great honor to get such reference from such an expert.

    > What is the one book on lunars that he refers to?

    Bruce Stark, Tables for clearing the LD's, 45 EU
    listed on
    www.navastro.fr/en/index.html?p236.html
    (Sorry, I did not mean to violate the list policy
    prohibiting advertising. Disclaimer: I have never seen the
    book. I judge from the advertising and ocasional references
    on this list).

    > such as Chauvenet? Not very accessible, for a modern reader.

    I did not mean books from the past. I really enjoy Chauvenet,
    and recently bought one at a very affordable price on the
    Internet.

    Alex.

    P.S. I did not want to offend anyone with my jujement.
    (I could easily miss something good).
    I just listed what I know. Most of the things I know about
    Lunars I learned from this list. My favorite books on Cel Nav
    are one Russian book (which I recently copied from the lib of Congress:-)
    it does not address Lunars,
    and Chauvenet. And the web site I use to reduce my lunars is
    Frank's site. There are other excellent sites and web texts,
    all of them mentioned on this list, I suppose.
