Cecil Goodrich Julius Dolmage

Cecil G. Dolmage wrote Astronomy of To-day, a plain-language introduction to astronomy for general readers. The book presents him as a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society and a member of major British and French astronomical societies, suggesting he was closely involved with the astronomy community of his time.

Library and archive records identify him as Cecil Goodrich Julius Dolmage and date Astronomy of To-day to 1909, the year after his death in 1908. That timing gives the book a slightly valedictory feel: it captures early-20th-century astronomy at a moment when public interest in science was growing quickly.
