The Memoir and Scientific Correspondence of the Late Sir George Gabriel Stokes, Bart., edited by Joseph Larmor, captures the life of one of England's great scientific contributors to the fluid dynamics and optics disciplines. Volume 1 (1907) includes a memoir, culled from family and friends, along with key professional correspondence.

Sir George Stokes established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity describing the velocity of a small sphere through a viscous fluid. He published no books, and these collected papers (issued between 1880 and 1905) constitute the main surviving record of the work of this outstanding mathematician.
