The Sir John Herschel Collection
The preparation of the print Calendar of the Correspondence of Sir John Herschel (Michael J. Crowe ed., David R. Dyck and James J. Kevin assoc. eds, Cambridge, England: Cambridge Univ. Press, 1998, viii + 828 pp) which was funded by the National Science Foundation, took ten years. It was accomplished by a team of seventeen professors, visiting scholars, graduate students, advanced undergraduates, and staff working at the University of Notre Dame.
The first online version of Calendar was created in 2009 by Dr Marvin Bolt and Steven Lucy, working at the Webster Institute of the Adler Planetarium, and it is that data that has now been reformatted for incorporation into Ɛpsilon.
Further information about Herschel, his correspondence, and the editorial method is available online here: http://historydb.adlerplanetarium.org/herschel/?p=intro
No texts of Herschel’s letters are currently available through Ɛpsilon.
Requires that HH return. 'The storm is coming on thicker.' Danger of coining operations breaking down. Report of coin production from W. T. Brande.
Has not received reply from Anthony de Rothschild. Foresees great demand soon for gold and silver. Gives W. T. Brande's estimate of maximum possible output by Mint.
Make immediate arrangements to accept extra workers into Die and Coining departments to bring coining operations up to maximum capacity.
Happened to meet JH's wife, Margaret; was very pleased to see her in such good health. Has heard a rumor about a Bank of England resolution on decimalization [see GA's 1852-3-15].
