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.

Consider his note on empirical laws as unwritten as he intends introducing a paragraph on this subject. Gives a list of the contents of his book.
Is extremely grateful for his comments on his book and will try to incorporate them. His book is intended as an introduction only. Delegates prefer s instead of z.
Comments on the proofs of his book that he has received so far. Has been ill and not feeling like intellectual work, so would he request his printer to send no more sheets for the time being.
Is extremely grateful for his comments. Agrees with him about the medical examples. All the sheets have now been sent.
