Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. Inscribed: 'Pat and Herb We are very/pleased that you enjoy the farm, and/have made it even more enjoyable to/all./Our very best to you. Hope our/paths will cross more often./Chas H. Townes/Oct. 21 '00.' Townes may be referring to his birthplace: 'Charlie Townes was born on 28 July 1915 in Greenville, South Carolina. He grew up on a farm, and often emphasized that his interest in science and nature started there, when he and his older brother Henry explored the woods and streams around their home' (Bulletin of the AAS, Vol. 47, Issue 1, Dec. 1, 2015). The Nobel Prize in Physics 1964 was divided, one half awarded to Charles Hard Townes, the other half jointly to Nicolay Gennadiyevich Basov and Aleksandr Mikhailovich Prokhorov 'for fundamental work in the field of quantum electronics, which has led to the construction of oscillators and amplifiers based on the maser-laser principle.'
