The moon hoax; or, A discovery that the moon has a… von Richard Adams Locke
Reprint of a classic 19th Century hoax, originally serialized in the New York Sun in 1835. It may have prompted Edgar Allen Poe's Balloon Hoax. (Poe's own earlier moon hoax, later published as the The Unparalleled Adventures of Hans Pfall, was far less successful than Locke's.) To be read as a piece of Americana.
Found this on Google Books here. (Hopefully that link will work.) Otherwise try reading online at the Museum of Hoaxes, starting here at Day One, and the other five days linked on that page.
