Abstract

A comprehensive edition of the surviving correspondence of the London-based scientific enthusiast J. H. de Magellan (1722-1790), who devoted himself to promoting the interchange of scientific and technical news and information between England and the rest of Europe at a time when more formal means of doing so were lacking.
