William A. Wallace, executive officer on the famous SS Great Eastern, gives a fascinating account of the vessel's first voyage to North America in 1860. »Believing the Great Eastern to have enlisted the sympathy of the British public generally, and I may say of the whole civilized world, I think it not out of place, on the satisfactory completion of her first voyage across the Atlantic, to publish a brief, but plain and unvarnished account of ...

This volume is presented as a companion study to my translation of Galileo's MS 27, Galileo's Logical Treatises, which contains Galileo's appropriated questions on Aristotle's Posterior Analytics - a work only recently transcribed from the Latin autograph.
