There is a nice site about Bowditch (the man) at
It is a Historic Salem initiative
Regarding Bowditch (the book) it would be
interesting to have the parts about lunars
( which are no longer present in the current
Bowditch edition ) published on the Internet.

I'm thinking of something that would describe the various editions, maybe a paragraph on each, similar to the listing in Campbell but verified and updated and covering the "H.O." and later editions, too.
