About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Ocean of Air - Meteorology for Beginners by Agnes Giberne. Read in English by AlosLovecraft; Elizabeth Miles; John; Greg Giordano; Nahome; Kristine Bekere; David Bear; Logan Lorenz; Melanie D. Young This is an immensely readable book explaining anything to do with air - the atmosphere, wind and clouds, and life. This 1896 explanation has since been overtaken by more specific scientific discoveries, but the general concepts certainly still hold true until today. Any beginner interested in meteorology will find this book a great place to start. - Summary by Carolin
