The Power of Lenses Explains Magnification Terms
The Springfield Republican describes how optic makers rate opera glasses and telescopes by magnification in "diameters." A two diameter lens doubles size in each direction, yielding four times the surface view. A 20 diameter lens magnifies 400 times and 100 diameters 10,000 times, since surface area scales with the square of diameter.

It notes typical telescope powers, light gathering, and that eye pieces adapt for different uses, with an example from the Lick observatory.
