499p. Illustrated with numerous drawings of astronomical instruments of the nineteenth century. All edges marbled. Large 8vo. Rebound in faux leather brown cloth. Hardbound. Nice copy of the seventh edition. Inked ownership of Robert Bridges (1865-1930), while a student at Princeton. Robert Bridges was long a figure of note and power in the American literary world, and often confused with the British Poet Laureate of the same name. Born at Shippensburg, PA he went to Princeton, where he met his best friend through life and classmate, Woodrow Wilson. Bridges was successful as a newspaper reporter, 1880-1887, the literary critic of Life, 1883-1900, the assistant editor and editor of Scribner's Magazine, 1887-1930. He published occasional prose and verse, but his greatest influence is the particular interest he took in the young authors, notably Booth Tarkington. SCIENCE BOX 2. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

Herschel shows here that the circulating motions of double-stars were under gravitational forces. Until then the validity of the law of gravity was only established within the solar system. Now a century after the establishment of the law it was traced out in the motion of incredibly distant stars and the theory first truly earned its title of Universal. The exact proof of the mutual gravitation of the double-stars was only obtained five years after Herschel's death when the motions of the stars were more precisely dtermined.One of the most notable of Herschel's discoveries of double-stars binary stars. A first cataloque of such pairs was published early in 1782 and contained 269 of which 227 were new discoveries. "Twenty years after the publication of his first cataloque Herschel was of Michell's opinion - Michell had expressed the opinion that the odds in favour of a physical relation between the members of Herschel's newly discovered double stars were "beyond arithmetic" - but was able to support it by evidence of an entirely novel and much more direct character. A series of observations of Castor presented in two papers in the "Philosophical Transaction" in 1803 and 1804 the paperS offered which were fortunately supplemented by an observation of Bradley's in 1759 had shewn a progressive alteration in the direction of the line joining its two components of such a character as to leave no doubt that the two stars were revolving round one another; and there were five oher cases in which a similar motion was observed.it was shown that the double-star was really formed by a connected pair of stars near enough to influence one another's mortion."Berry in "A Short History of Astronomy" pp. 342-43. </em> unknown
