Notes:

John Howe, whose name appears as author on the title pages of this almanac through 1811, was also the only printer in Greenwich.

"Address to the public. People may wonder, why an almanac maker should keep his name secret ... I have devoted many hours to serve the public; but choosing others should form their opinion of my production without prejudice, I retire behind the curtain of fiction, to renew my labors for another year. ... Mont Pleasant, May 12th, 1811. P.A. [i.e., Philo Astronomia]"
