    Looking for a book title
    From: Vic Fraenckel
    Date: 2003 Sep 24, 14:22 -0400

    I saw a book for sale in our local Barnes and Noble that I should have
    bought. Now I cannot remember the title. Perhaps someone on this list could
    help. The book was a NEW title concerning the French expeditions that were
    sent out back in the 18th century to measure the latitude arc lengths in the
    artic and tropics to support the definition of the meter.
    
    If you can tell me the title and/or the author it would be appreciated.
    
    TIA
    
    Vic
