Some letters of William Scoresby junior
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2009
Extract
A bound volume of letters in the library of the British Museum (Natural History) contains eight letters written by William Scoresby junior between 1809 and 1819. The earliest letter is addressed to Sir Joseph Banks, but, being probably only part of the communication, is unsigned. The remainder, all signed, are addressed to Everard Home.
