Decorative gilt-stamped maroon cloth; extremities rubbed corners bumped small white circle on spine. Else very good. FIRST BRISISH EDITION. "The inn has played a large part in the domestic life of England down the centuries. Always intimately associated with the characteristics of the English people as a center for social life it still retains a warm place in their hearts. The story of the tavern therefore is associated with the tale of the road and English wayfaring life. Love of travel is a strong characteristic of the English race yet it co-exists with a feeling for home comforts and a desire to be reminded of familiar things. Thus it is from the earliest times that the inn in spite of its widened functions has at each stage of its development retained the piquant element of domesticity. The old inns of England are unlike those of other countries. The majority are genuine survivals; they are records of other times and customs and they have a symbolic value for the ordinary traveler. They are generally simple in character but many have undergone alterations and changes corresponding with each era of social progress. The inns of each period especially such as remain intact and unaltered could be described in any treatise dealing with the recognized phases of house building; collectively they present a subject for a monograph. . .

191237320London: Taylor & Francis 1912. Offprint. Stitched paper wrappers. A very good copy with small tear on front wrapper wrappers browned. 263-278 pp. 8vo. From "Philosophical Magazine" February 1912 vol. 23 no. 134 . Owen Willians Richardson 1879-1959 would go on to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1928 for his work on the thermionic phenomenon and especially for the discovery of the law named after him. "The law for the discovery of which the Nobel Prize was specially given was first announced by him in a paper read before the Cambridge Philosophical Society on the 25th November 1901 in the following words as recorded in the published Proceedings: 'If then the negative radiation is due to the corpuscles coming out of the metal the saturation current s should obey the law s = AT1/2e-b/T. This law is fully confirmed by the experiments to be described.' Richardson continued working at this subject at Cambridge until 1906 when he was appointed Professor of Physics at Princeton University in America where he remained until the end of 1913 working at thermionic emission photoelectric action and the gyromagnetic effect."
