Fep has a small portion of the top edge cut off. Cover has some wear and spine lettering faded. No DJ present. Story of the Partridge family and their eight children set against the social background of the 1880's in the upper New York state town of Phelps. Bellamy Partridge was a 1900 graduate of Hobart College Bellamy Partridge went on to study law and for about a decade practiced law with his father Civil War veteran and country lawyer Samuel Selden Partridge in the little town of Phelps New York--near Rochester--before striking out as a freelance writer novelist and historian. He was the author of many works including the national best-seller "Country Lawyer" 1939 a memoir of his father and its sequel "The Big Family" 1941. Partridge and his family moved out to California when "Country Lawyer" was picked up by one of the studios and he was given a six-month contract to adapt it for the screen. They lived at the Chateau Marmont on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood and while her husband labored on the screenplay his wife a short story and article writer herself composed letters back to her family in Connecticut that would later become the basis of her 1941 book "A Lady Goes to Hollywood: Being The Casual Adventures of an Author's Wife in the Much Misunderstood Capital of Filmland". By the time the screenplay was finished Pearl Harbor was attacked and America entered World War II; the project was permanently shelved and the film was never made. Stephen J Voorhies was a popular muralist pictorial mapmaker book illustrator and painter from the 1920's well into the 1960's. Of Dutch descent he was born in 1898 and grew up in the New York area. After serving in the U. S. Navy Voorhies attended the Pratt Institute in the Clinton Hill area of Brooklyn studying Art and Design. Graduating in 1922 he quickly earned a reputation as an artist able to work in any medium. He eventually established a permanent residence at 136 Linden Street Rockville Centre Long Island but maintained a separate studio at 303 West 42nd Street in Manhattan. His wife Dorothy Townsend Voorhies was an accomplished book illustrator and fashion designer in her own right. Stephen J Voorhies was listed in both the Who Was Who in American Art and Salons of America.<br/> Voorhies loved the then-popular concept of pictorial maps and murals — filled with busy scenes of trade industry and the bustle of rural and town life. In 1949 he designed the New York City Subway map. Whittlesey House, McGraw-Hill Book Company, Inc hardcover

19671301London: Macmillan & Sons 1967. 1st Edition. BOUND FIRST EDITION full volume of the first tentative measurement of a CMB anisotropy a slightly elevated temperature in the direction of a known quasar cluster. Wilkinson & Partridge's paper presents results "which appear to set rather stringent limits on the magnitude of possible density inhomogeneities in the universe" Wilkinson and Partridge 1967 719. ALSO included is Nicholas Shackleton's reassessment of Emiliani's conclusions from his 1966 analysis of the oxygen isotope ratios in Caribbean cores as an indicator of variations in total volume of glacier ice sheets. <br /> <br /> WILKINSON: "The CMB radiation is a direct relic of the early universe. It is a unique and deep probe of both the thermal history of the early universe and the primordial perturbations in the matter distribution" Tuluie "Cosmic Microwave Background" AJ 1996 15. Following "the discovery of the CMB early work focused on putting constraints on the isotropy of the radiation field: that would be an important part of establishing its cosmological origin and would put constraints on the peculiar motion of the galaxy relative to the Local Group and the Virgo Supercluster" ibid.<br /> <br /> Small "anistropies" inhomogeneities in directional measurements of temperature and polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation CMB allow scientists to test cosmological and astronomical theories including cosmic inflation the geometry of the visible universe and the distribution of galaxy clusters. Wilkinson and Partridge's paper again presents the first attempt to put experimental limits on the level of anistropy. <br /> <br /> SHACKLETON: Shackleton "concludes that glacial/interglacial variations in foraminiferal oxygen isotope records were primarily influenced by changes in the oxygen isotopic composition of seawater rather than temperature" Ravelo The Use of Oxygen and Carbon Isotopes 735. CONDITION & DETAILS: London: Macmillian & Sons. Ex-libris with very minimal interior markings and ghosting from the removal of a spine label. Complete volume bound in bright red cloth with red buckram at the spine. Tightly bound and very clean. The interior is bright and exceptionally clean throughout. Macmillan & Sons hardcover
