Excerpt from Elements of Meteorology: With Questions for Examination, Designed for Schools and Academies

Meteorology is a subject of interest to all. We live in the very midst of its phenomena, and are constantly subjected to their influence. Many of the singular pro cesses of nature which this science unfolds, are intimate ly connected with our being and happiness, While others, on account of their beauty and sublimity, fill the mind with admiration and awe.

The subject being one of universal interest, we might naturally suppose it to be universally understood; but such is not the case. Meteorology, as a science, is of recent origin; for it is only within the space of a very few years that it has risen, through the efforts of many gifted minds, to the rank it deserves to hold amid the various departments of knowledge.
