Bookseller's description: First edition. An important source book for Newton's life. In 1733 the Turnor family had purchased Woolsthorpe Manor, Newton's birthplace, and in this book Edmund Turnor made available much hitherto unpublished primary material, including Conduitt's memoir to Fontenelle, a conversation with Newton in 1725, Stukely's letter to Mead, and other memoirs and records of Newton. [...] This book was a companion volume to Howlett's Select Views in Lincolnshire, and duplicated six of its plates. Purchasers of both volumes required this one to have only two plates, but copies of this book on its own should have the extra six plates [...].
