A British schoolboy, last week, found a dusty box of books discarded at the bottom of a cupboard turned out to contain rare works of Sir Isaac Newton. 16-year-old Will Garside, the physics student of Newcastle-under-Lyme School, Staffordshire said that he couldn't realize how special they were at first while also expresses his interest about seeing the books from such a long time ago and that he hope they will stay with the school.
Moreover, the auctioneers estimated that the books could be worth "thousands of pounds" but the school said it was not going to part with them while Julie Hesketh, the school's marketing and development manager stressed on the factor that they don't think of selling them because they are of such historical importance. It is so inspirational for their pupils and the school. The find is inherent to their physics department and many of their former students have gone on to be eminent physicists across industry and research.
It was indeed a great discovery of the rare works!
