The ladyâ€™s horoscope offers comparable predictions including marriage faithfulness personal fortune bodily injury and death and is illustrated with drawings of her future husband or sincere friend. Written with confident authority the compiler explicitly distinguishes his interpretations from contemporary printed dream books suggesting familiarity with popular astrological and oneiric literature of the period. An exceptionally rare survival documenting antebellum astrology and popular belief in the United States. Note. 1. Album New York: Published by Solomon King 1830 unrecorded in OCLC. zxc unknown
