'The contents of the present volume are so very miscellaneous that it would be a difficult task to give a satisfactory analysis of them within the limits of a few pages. Perhaps it may be sufficient to state that the Editor has endevoured to form such a collection of early letters on scientific subjects as would be likely to assist any future author of a critical history of English science.' - Preface. The central design to the front board of this book is the 'Monas Hieroglyphica' an esoteric symbol invented and designed by John Dee the Court Astrologer to Elizabeth I; it is also the title of the 1564 book in which Dee expounds the meaning of his symbol. One of the letters included in this published collection is from John Dee. James Orchard Halliwell 1820-1889 was an antiquarian literary scholar and collector of English nursery rhymes. He published many books including 'Nursery Rhymes of England' 1842 and the 'Life of Shakespeare' 1848.
