Published: 1792
Place of publication: Boston

Format: Electronic resource
Number of pages: 24
Notes: Calculated by Samuel Bullard. The eclipse predictions and the calendar page calculations are identical with those in his An almanack for the year of Christian aera 1793 (Boston : B. Edes). The notes on the calendar pages vary in part; but the astronomical and horological ones agree, except that these occur somewhat more abundantly in the present almanac

Evans attributes the almanac, as he does most of those issued under the Bickerstaff pseudonym, to Benjamin West

Identical in content and typography, except for the title, with The Massachusetts, Connecticut, Newhampshire, Rhode-Island, and Vermont almanack for 1793, by Isaac Bickerstaff, also printed by Coverly. Similarly identical, except for p. [19-21], the foot of p. [24], and the calendar page verses, with Coverly's The New England callendar for 1793, published in three issues with the authorship lines of "Richard Astrologer," "Isaac Bickerstaff," and "Abraham Weatherwise."
