John Dalton was born in Eaglesfield, Cumbria, England. He was an English chemist, physicist and meteorologist.

At the age of 27 he was appointed professor of mathematics and natural philosophy at the Manchester College, Oxford University.

This work, Meteorological Observations and Essays, was published in 1793.
