The 1914 Habicht manuscript presents special relativity pedagogically by embedding it in the pre-1905 problem situation involving the ether, Michelson-Morley, and Lorentz's electrodynamics rather than treating it as Einstein's isolated creation.
Einstein, Albert (1879–1955). Autograph letter signed (‘A.E.’) to his friend Paul Habicht, Old Lyme, Connecticut, 5 August 1935
