Newton, Sir Isaac Philosophiae naturalis principia mathematica. London: William & John Innys, 1726. "Third" edition, 4to, lacking portrait, title in red and black, with half-title following title, Halley’s verses, engraved illustration of cometary orbit on p.506, woodcut diagrams throughout, two pages of publisher`s adverts at rear, contemporary calf, neatly rebacked and repaired at corners, previous ink inscriptions to head of title and on front fixed endpaper, bookplate, some light foxing to titleNote: Babson 13 “This edition was the last published during the author’s lifetime and the basis of all subsequent editions. It was edited by Henry Pemberton, M.D., F.R.S., and contains a new preface by Newton and a large number of alterations, the most important being the scholium on fluxions, in which Leibnitz had been mentioned by name. This had been considered an acknowledgement of Leibnitz’s independent discovery of calculus. In omitting Leibnitz’s name in this edition, Newton was criticised as taking advantage of an opponent whose death had prevented any reply. Halley’s verses were restored to their original form.” Babson

First trade edition, 4to, frontispiece, folding plates, morocco extra by Bayntun-Riviere, with Cosway-style ivory painted miniature of Lawrence inserted to upper board, slip autographed by Lowell-Thomas "With Allenby in Palestine and Lawrence in Arabia" and T.E.

The slip placed under glass on the lower board is signed by both Lowell Thomas and T.E. Lawrence. Lowell Thomas was the american writer and braodcaster that made "Lawrence of Arabia" a household name. He travelled to the Near East to record the work of General Allenby and Lawrence in the campaign against the Ottoman Empire in Palestine during WWI. Thomas, and his cameraman Harry Chase, spent several weeks in the desert with Lawrence, capturing some dramatic footage. After the war Thomas toured the world with his film, With Allenby in Palestine and Lawrence in Arabia, bringing the work of Lawrence to the international stage. Lawrence hid from the limelight and, eventually, grew to resent Thomas for the success of his show, refering to him as a "vulgar man".
