The Observatory is pleased to announce the release of Classics.
This virtual library houses public domain books that are of cultural/historical significance to all readers, including academics/researchers, experts, and students.
Our editors have thoughtfully updated these transcribed texts to improve upon what was previously available by adding contextual and editorial notes, as well as user-friendly formatting—and they are all available for free to readers.
Observatory Classics works cover history, philosophy, cookbooks, and much more.
Please visit observatory.wiki/Classics to view the growing Observatory Classics library so far.
Sincerely,
The Observatory Editors
