How am I defining notable? For these titles, it just means that each of these books was in some way regarded as important, ground-breaking, or influential.
The mystery of golf; a briefe account of games in generall: their origine; antiquitie; & rampancie: and of the game ycleped golfe in particular: its uniqueness; its curiousness; & difficultie; its anatomical, philosophicall, and moral properties; together with diverse concepts on other matters to it appertaining. By Arnold Haultain. Boston, New York, Houghton Mifflin, 1908. (“Four hundred and forty copies printed at the Riverside Press in 1908. This is number 351.” Bruce Rogers Collection.)
Considered to be the first book on the psychology of golf. Ours is one of the rare Bruce Rogers titles.
Mystery of Golf
Uncle Tom’s cabin, or, Life among the lowly / by Harriet Beecher Stowe. Boston: J.P. Jewett; Cleveland : Jewett, Proctor & Worthington, 1852, c1851. 2 v. 1st edition.
Uncle Tom’s Cabin
Caused an immediate controversy in the U.S.—already divided on the issue of slavery. An instant success and considered to be the first “best seller” in American publishing history. Abraham Lincoln, on meeting the author, is reported to have greeted her by saying “So you are the little lady who made this big war.”
The Descent of Man
The descent of man, and selection in relation to sex. By Charles Darwin. London, J. Murray, 1871. 2 v.
Published 12 years after his famous On the Origin of Species, The Descent of Man was Darwin’s second work dealing with the theory of evolution and natural selection.
Harvey’s Anatomical Exercises
The anatomical exercises of Dr. William Harvey, professor of physick and physician to the Kings Majesty, concerning the motion of the heart and blood / with the preface of Zachariah Wood, physician of Roterdam. To which is added Dr. James De Back his Discourse of the heart, physician in ordinary to the town of Roterdam. London : Printed by Francis Leach for Richard Lowndes…, 1653.
The first record of how the circulatory system works. Originally published as De Motu Cordis in 1628; our copy is the 1st English translation of 1653.
Lyrical Ballads
Lyrical ballads, with pastoral and other poems…By W. Wordsworth… 2nd ed. London, Printed for T. N. Longman and O. Rees, by Biggs and Cottle, 1802. 2v. (Library has v. 2)
Expanded and with several important changes from the 1st edition of 1800. Considered the preferred edition, since the 2nd edition of vol. 1 contains the first printing of Wordsworth’s Preface.
