An Account of the Revd. John Flamsteed, the First Astronomer-Royal: To Which Is Added, his British Catalogue of Stars, Corrected and Enlarged - Cambridge Library Collection - Astronomy
Francis Baily
John Flamsteed (1646–1719), the first Astronomer Royal, complied a 'Catalogue of British Stars' but quarrelled with Newton and Halley over his failure to publish it. In 1835 Francis Baily (1774–1844) published Flamsteed's edited papers, with a revised version of the catalogue, rehabilitating his reputation and promoting observational astronomy.
