We are Urgently Seeking to Buy Books in Grantham and the County of Lincolnshire.
Please quote or offer anything you feel may be of interest to us,
History credits Grantham as being the place where Cromwell first had success against the Royalists.
But for most of us it is better known for its famous residents such as
Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727)
born at Woolsthorpe where he attended school.
The greatest English mathematician and physicist of his generation,
he laid the foundation for differential and integral calculus
and his work on optics and gravitation
made him one of the greatest scientists the world has ever known.
In more recent times we have seen Britain's first woman Prime Minister.
Baroness Margaret Thatcher - born Margaret Hilda Roberts on October 13th 1925
above her fathers grocery shop at 1 North Parade.
Exhibits featuring Isaac Newton, Margaret Thatcher and The Dambusters
can be seen at the Grantham Museum, St Peters Hill.
