Cloth. Zustand: Near fine. First Edition. Octavo, [2], 67pp, [3]. Brown cloth, title in gilt on spine and front cover. Dark green endpapers. Internally clean, solid text block. Archival tissue reinforcement to hinge of title page. Bookplate of "W.T. Sherman, General" and his son, Philemon T. Sherman, on the front endpaper. (Howes, S-826) (Kentucky, Coleman 2953) (Monaghan 1005) This work by Speed is one of three known copies to enter the public market. Provenance: The Sherman-Fitch Collection, Lot 51424-110, Fleischer's Auction, 2024. This book was acquired by Philemon after his father's death in 1891, at which point the "W.T. Sherman, General" bookplate was added. The second bookplate was added by Sherman's grandson, Tecumseh Sherman Fitch (1908-1969), who inherited the collection in 1942. At the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, Joshua F. Speed, a close friend of Lincoln since his days in the Illinois Legislature, coordinated Union military activities in Kentucky. This responsibility introduced him to Brig. General William T. Sherman, who commanded the Department of the Cumberland in Louisville. Sherman made numerous requests to Washington for supplies for his troops, but it took an intervention by Speed and his direct connection to Lincoln to make it happen. Sherman was amazed and said to Speed: "How is it that more attention is paid to the request of you, a citizen, than to me, a general in the army? You had better take command here." Speed replied: "The only mistake you made, General, was in not asking for more." The two men continued to exchange letters as Sherman's military career moved forward. Their correspondence is likely why Sherman desired a copy of this short memoir by Speed. From the library of General William T. Sherman, the first edition of Reminiscences of Abraham Lincoln and Notes of a Visit to California by his close friend, Joshua F. Speed. (illustrator). …

(Paris, Gauthier-Villars), 1917. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences", tome 165, No 14. Pp. (417-) 448. (Entire issue offered). Majorana's paper: pp. 424-428. A stamp in upper right corner of the first page. First apperance of Majorana's paper which was the first experimentally to prove the speed of light as set forth by Einstein in his special relativity theory. Majorana was critical to Einstein's relativity, and he therefore tried to prove experimentally that the postulate of the speed of light was wrong. His experiments turned out otherwise, and he hereby proved Einstein's postulate that the speed of light was independent of the velocxity of its source.…

Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1851. Without wrappers as issued in "Annalen der Physik und Chemie. Hrsg.von Poggendorff", Bd. 83, Viertes Stück.(= Heft No. 8 of 1851). (The entire issue offered (Heft 2 of vol. 83 with titlepage to vol. 83). Pp.469-600 a. 2 engraved plates. Helmholtz's paper: pp. 505-540. Clean and fine. First appearance of this paper in which Helmholtz for the first time measures and gives the mathematical formula for the duration of induced electrical currents and thus distinguished with mathematical accuracy from those due to nerve-action."In (the offered paper) he begins by stating a mathematical law, which he had verified by a long and difficult series of experiments. By means of this law F. neumann was enabled to solve the problem he had previously laid aside, as to the distribution of current in a copper disk rotating below the two poles of a magnet.After Helmholtz had extended this exponiential law mathematically to divided circuits, he tested it experimentally by means of a new type of galvanic contact-key, which madeit possible to vary the interval between the opening and closing of any current, as required."(Koenigsberger "Hermann von helmholtz", pp. 79-80). …
