Erstausgabe
Couverture souple. Zustand: Très bon. Edition originale. In-8° broché sous couverture d'attente bleue en état parfait - PERFECT COPY LIKE NOW - 2 parties en un vol. in-8, 136 pp. en numérotation continue. et deux feuillets non chiffrés comportant les errata des parties I et II. Francis Egerton (21 mai 1736 - 8 mars 1803), 6e comte de Bridgewater et 3e duc de Bridgewater fut un noble britannique, à l'origine du développement de la navigation intérieure en Grande-Bretagne. Il ne se maria pas et n'eut pas d'enfant : le titre de duc de Bridgewater s'éteignit avec lui. Le canal navigable qu'il projeta puis construisit de Worsley (Lancashire) à Manchester pour le transport de charbon extrait de mines situées sur ses terres fut, si l'on excepte le canal de Sankey et les initiatives isolées comme celle du canal d'Exeter (1563-1567), la première grande entreprise de cette sorte. La construction de cette remarquable infrastructure, avec son fameux pont-canal au-dessus de l'Irwell, fut entreprise par le célèbre ingénieur James Brindley. L'achèvement de ce canal mena le duc vers des oeuvres plus ambitieuses encore. En 1762 il obtint l'autorisation du Parlement pour la construction d'un canal entre Liverpool et Manchester. Les difficultés rencontrées lors de la construction furent bien plus grandes que pour le canal de Worsley, impliquant le passage du canal au-dessus de Sale Moor Moss. Mais le génie de Brindley se montra supérieur à tous les obstacles, et bien qu'à un moment lors des travaux les ressources financières du duc aient été près de s'épuiser (il limita un temps ses dépenses personnelles à 400 livres par an), les travaux continuèrent jusqu'à leur conclusion. Il avait 36 ans lorsque le second canal fut terminé, et il passa le reste de sa vie à améliorer les deux canaux et à s'occuper de ses possessions. Les revenus de ses canaux lui procurèrent en effet une immense fortune : à sa mort c'était le noble le plus riche de Grande-Bretagne, avec une fortune de quelque 2 millions de livres.

In den WarenkorbSee Glaisher's entry in the Oxford DNB. The story of Glaisher's balloon flights is travestied in the 2019 film 'The Aeronaut', with his co-pilot Henry Tracey Coxwell being replaced by the fictional female character 'Amelia Wren'. The object of the ascents, made on behalf of the British Association between 1862 and 1866, was to carry out scientific observations in such matters as the variation in temperature and humidity of the atmosphere at high elevations. On 5 September 1862 the coal-gas-filled balloonof Glaisher and Coxwell broke the world flight altitude record, reaching 30,000 to 36,000 ft (9,000 to 11,000 m). The present items are unsigned autograph drafts from Glaisher's papers, both with deletions and emendations. ONE: Unsigned Autograph Draft of letter to 'Mrs. Wallis' from the offices of the Photographic Society of Great Britain, of which Glaisher was President, dated 18 May 1900. 4pp, 12mo. On bifolium. In very good condition, lightly aged. In answer to her letter, he begins with a review of 'English legislation against Sunday trading', beginning with a reference to a statute of 1443. A bill being put before Parliament has 'no chance of passing and will probably be withdrawn', and 'of course is a renewed attempt to introduce Sunday labor - which should be opposed tooth and nail'. TWO: Part of Unsigned Autograph Draft to unnamed recipient, and without date or place. An intriguing fragment beginning: 'So much for me. / Now for yourself. I am disappointed. You started out so splendidly. I want you to grow; to take the position which you ought if we are to get the best out of you.' He urges the recipient to 'get help: don't rely on yourself quite so much'. Later he writes: 'The Fabian Society has "principles" or it couldn't hold together. You have "principles" - It is only a matter of expression'.
