Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Richard Owen Sir Richard Owen´s careful habit of preserving every paper or letter that came to his hands has rendered the task of preparing his ´Life´ more difficult perhaps than it would otherwise have been. Of his own letters, written chiefly to his wife and sisters, no less than 1,200 remain; while of the voluminous correspondence he received during his long life more than 15,000 letters had been preserved. Besides all these, both he and his wife were in the habit of keeping diaries. His own journal is of a more or less disconnected character; while that of his wife, which includes the years 1834 o 1873, is a full record not only of the important facts but also of the trivial details of their joint lives.
