In this concise monograph, Sir Henry Englefield (1752–1822) guides the reader through the computation of cometary orbits. First published in 1793, it represented one of the few such manuals available in English, and draws on the work of Newton, Pingré, Laplace, and Englefield's own correspondence with William Herschel.
