With SCARCE ALS tipped in at front of Vol. I from Huxley to publisher Kegan Paul in Huxleys' difficult hand, on South Kensington Science and Art Department embossed stationery, dated Nov. 15, 1873, one sheet folded, with writing two sides - " Dear Mr. Kegan Paul, I remember seeing (?)'s book a long time ago- but I cannot find it in my shelves now and I have such a strong hope that it was returned that I think I may follow ahead on purchasing & (?) my belief to that event(?) is my hope. Ever yours very faithfully, T.H. Huxley". Thomas H. Huxley ( 1825-1895) was a British educator, biologist and advocate of elevating science to a higher place in society. He coined the word agnosticism and earned the nickname "Darwin's bulldog" for his earnest defense of Darwin's theory of evolution. Charles Kegan Paul (1828-1902) was a British author and publisher who would later (1880) publish one of Huxley's books. . Later Printing. Cloth. Near Fine/No Jacket. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
