Reviews

[M]edical historians should find these volumes a valuable quarry for many years to come. They should also provide a goldmine for local and social historians.
*LINCOLNSHIRE HISTORY & ARCHAEOLOGY*

Surprisingly few sets of practitioners' papers have been printed. Matthew Flinders [...] kept an unusually detailed record of his life and work, and this edition of his manuscript notebooks will be welcomed by all students of the period. [...] The editors have done sterling work in producing a very clear and well structured edition. [...] I expect that Flinders will soon become a regularly discussed character in studies of eighteenth-century medicine.
*MEDICAL HISTORY*

An excellent transcription of the first of two memorandum and account books.

This is an excellently-presented volume with material to interest a wide range of historians. It is clearly laid out and above all it provides a very entertaining insight into the life of an apothecary and gentleman of learning.
