About this work

Description

Articles and reviews by Francis Galton published in Nature, and press cuttings from The Times, mainly constituting letters to the Editor from various correspondents.

This file originally contained a folder labelled "Memoirs by F. Galton Vol. VI", and three letters, from G J Allman, C Graham, and G A Spottiswoode respectively. The letters are pasted into the book Memoirs by F. Galton Vol. VII, and the descriptions for these letters can be found in GALTON/3/1/1. The book enclosing the letters has been re-bound and now shows the wrong volume number on the spine, reading "Vol. VII" instead of "Vol. VI".
