A history of our knowledge of the solar system – from the observations of Babylonian astronomers to the modern theories of Albert Einstein.
The Kingdom of the Sun is a non-fiction book by Isaac Asimov. First published by Abelard-Schuman in 1960, Collier brought out a paperback edition in 1962. Four years later, the publisher commissioned S. Neil Fujita with a new cover design, which is shown here. For the title and author name, Fujita used Inserat-Grotesk a.k.a. Neue Aurora VIII, in all-lowercase letters.
