He graduated at Yale in 1840. In 1841 he was appointed professor of mathematics in the Navy, and a year later succeded to the chair of mathematics at the naval in Philadelphia. He was very active in the movement that led to the establishment of the U.S naval academy at Annapolis. At first he was professor of mathematics and astronomy there, and later of astronomy, navigation, and surveying, and always the most prominent of the academic staff. In 1855, he was offered the professorship of mathematics, and in 1859 that of astronomy and natural philosophy at Yale, but both honors were declined. During the same year, he was elected to the chair of mathematics in Washington University, st louis, and in 1862, he was chosen chancellor of the university. This book is a detailed treatise combining contemporary European advancements along with new American methods using electric telegraph and the zenith telescope. Chauvenet has included his own method for reducing lunar distances, first published in the American ephemeris in 1855 along with the tables for its application.
