Astrology Books!

[tabi]

I got two astrology books from my boyfriend's mom for Christmas. He swears that she must really like me because he remember her having these books when he was little and saying that he wasn't even allowed to touch them. I was wondering how good they are and more about them. I have a difficult time reading text that is dry or boring, so is it worth struggling to read them for me?

Heaven Knows What by Grant Lewi
First Copyrighted by Doubleday Doran in 1935, the one I have is by Llewellyn in 1967. Hardback, 214 pages not including the charts that go 1890-1970 (Yup it is older then me)

The Coffee Table Book of Astrology revised edition; Edited by John Lynch
First Copyrighted by The Viking Press, Inc. in 1962, this one is 1967 by said publisher. Hardback, roughly 311 pages with Asecent tables (NOT charts) the charts go from 1900-1974 (still two years older then me). AMAZING illustrations in this one! Also have a chapter on: Palmistry as Related to Astrology.

You will really struggle with Lewi's book and the other one ain't much better, they are too dated and if you already have a foot in the pond of astrology you will find them obsolete.

I know but I find the idea of them to be fascinating...I do have several books on astrology and I do have a good basic understanding of it....I do mean BASIC here. I also really love old/older books. I would love to be able to read some of the classic Lit that is out there but I can't get through them.
