October 01, 1862

BROUGHTON'S MONTHLY PLANET READER AND ASTROLOGICAL JOURNAL, Philadelphia, Oct., Nov. & Dec., 1862

A fascinating and very unusual newspaper of small-size themed on predicting what would happen in the future--great to read in hindsight.
The ftpg. has: "The Nativity of Gen. John C. Fremont" with a nice engraving of him. Pages 2 and 3 have the nativities of "Gen. George B. McClellan", "Rebel Gen. J. C. Breckenridge", and Joseph Garibaldi". There is also an article: "The Fate of the Nation" which is interesting reading.
Four pages, 5 3/4 by 9 inches, very nice condition.
