It is fascinating to see how each era viewed the moon in terms of the religious and philosophical climate of the period." --Choice"With humankind's thoughts, feelings and beliefs projected upon the Moon as its focus, this wonderful book--masterful in scope, rich in detail, and a pleasure to read--takes the reader on a sometimes surprising and often fascinating and enlightening journey across the arts and sciences." --Leonardo"Montgomery stitches a story of religious allegory, scientific inquiry and artistic insight. . . . Beneath the easy-reading style lies a work of substance that is a narrow but penetrating contribution to cultural history." --Publishers Weekly
