| Date | 1873-1874 |
| Description | Table summary recording the date, correspendence and contents of the letters copied by Colonel Sir John Herschel from his father's correspondence. This is a chronological list rather than an index to navigate the correspondence itself. The contents column includes a general topic description such as 'comets' or 'mathematics' or 'personal'. Covers from 9 June 1810 to August 1825.
A correction on the title page to 1826 does not seem to correspond to the list itself. |
