- Notes:
Very interesting biography of William Lilly, a 17th C Astrologer whose predictions influenced strategy in the English Civil War. A sought after astrologer, who gave 'scientific' credibility to Astrology due to the rigour and professionalism of his work. Also looks at his work with his contemporaries.
