William Stukeley's Memoir of Newton

MEMOIRS OF SIR ISAAC NEWTON'S LIFE
William STUKELEY, M.D., F.R.S. 1752
Being some account of his family; & chiefly of the junior part of his life.

Bit off topic but as it's by Stukeley it may be of interest.

Coincidentally, the Royal Society has made Stukeley's memoir of Newton available in facsimile form online today.

It contains the apple story, which we owe to Stukeley.
