| 3732 | OTHE00033 | Suppressed preface to the Historia coelestis britannica | 24 | 3 | RGO Ms. 1/32C, ff. 74-93 | 12657 | 1717 | Ostensibly an account of the genesis of the book, but in fact largely given over to a bitter and highly personal attack by the former Astronomer Royal on Newton, who according to Flamsteed bullied him, interfered with his work, took his data by force and used it without acknowledgment. | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | 6/20/21, 7:30 PM | View Edit Delete |
