Provenance: Several early annotations on wrappers a few leaves; acquired Dorothy Sloan (11 December 2009, Sale 22, lot 228).   The second work is the FIRST PAMPHLET PRINTED IN TEXAS ON A HORSE-POWERED PRESS. Burnet wrote his review of Houston's life in response to Charles Edwards Lester's Sam Houston and HIs Republic, which was factually inaccurate.   According to Raines, Burnet wrote to a friend: "'I have some idea of answering some of its misstatements and in order to do so am anxious to collect all the facts possible relating to the campaign of "˜36. The book is full of falsehood"”every truth is turned upside down.' He bemoaned Houston as "the prince of Humbugs," and detailed errors, exaggerations, and what he called outright lies. No one seems to have doubted that Houston had himself written the book. ...About the same time an anonymous pamphlet appeared, printed by J.T. Towers in Washington, entitled Life of General Sam Houston, obviously derived from the Lester volume....The Towers pamphlet, he said, is but a repetition of the same falsehoods and the same absurd distortions of character" (see Raines 126n).

He viewed electricity not just as another branch of physics but "as an aid to the interpretation of nature," and saw the study of electromagnetism "as a means of promoting the progress of science" (Preface, p. vii). Maxwell advanced "the significant hypothesis that light and electricity are the same in their ultimate nature" (Grolier/Horblit). "He began the investigation of moving frames of reference, which in Einstein's hands were to revolutionize physics; gave proofs of the existence of electromagnetic waves that paved the way for Hertz's discovery of radio waves; worked out connections between the electrical and optical qualities of bodies that would lead to modern solid-state physics; and applied Tait's quaternion formulae to the field of equations, out of which Heaviside and Gibbs would develop vector analysis" (Norman 1466).
