Reviews

  • 'This well-written and extensively researched book contributes much to our understanding of antiquarianism and its relationship with later sciences and methods of historical scholarship...It should spur greater interest in studying the close relationship that existed between the human sciences and the natural sciences during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.' ~ Matthew R. Goodrum, BJHS, vol 39/3, Sept 2006

    Matthew R. Goodrum

  • "An invaluable study" Northern History
