The Private Diary of Dr. John Dee and the Catalogue of His Library of Alchemical Manuscripts is a book written by James Orchard Halliwell. This book provides a comprehensive account of the life and work of Dr. John Dee, a prominent figure in the field of alchemy during the 16th century. The book consists of two parts: the first part is Dee's private diary, which he kept from 1555 to 1608, and the second part is a catalogue of his library of alchemical manuscripts. The diary provides a unique insight into Dee's life and work, including his experiments with alchemy, his travels across Europe, and his interactions with other prominent figures of his time. The catalogue of his library includes a detailed description of each manuscript, along with its author and subject matter. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of alchemy and the life of Dr. John Dee.From the Original Manuscripts in the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford, and Trinity College Library, Cambridge. �������The eminent philosopher of Mortlake.������� �������The publication of this Diary will tend perhaps to set Dee's character in its true light, more than anything that has yet been printed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
