Perkins : A new almanack, for the year of our Lord God, 1685. Being the first after leap-year, and from the worlds creation, according to Sacred Writ, 5634 years. Composed, and chiefly referred to the famous city of London; but (without sensible error) may serve for any other place in Great Britain. Adorned with a compendious chronology of things worth remembrance, since the creation to this present year; as also, the weather, the sun & moons rising & setting, with the high-wayes, &c. and many other useful things, proper for such a work. The like not extant by any other, being of general use for all men. Made, and set forth by F. Perkins, student in the mathematicks.
