MARKHAM
(Sir Clements, 1830-1916, Geographer and President of the Royal Geographical Society)
Autograph Letter Signed to Edward A. FREEMAN
(Edward Augustus, 1823-1892, Historian), saying he was “very glad to see your two volumes at last, and the clear maps - which it is most pleasant to read by the light of; I had had to make several to read the proofs with. The vols will go with us to Sicily, and I look forward... to going over some of the ground with them. Mr Conway... to attempt a volume of about 300 pages on the arts and crafts of the inhabitants of this island from our first glimpse of them to the beginning of Norman influence; I assume that this includes buildings, roads, implements, inscriptions and things in general that were made or imported; now written about in hundreds of scattered papers and numerous books, all to be condensed and brought to bear upon the history. There will also be much travelling and examining of sites, a year or two of work - but I am not yet quite committed to it. Boyd Dawkins had undertaken to write the book, but found he had too many other things to do and got out of it. I should be much obliged it you would send me a letter of introduction to Mr Stigand at Palermo...”, 3 sides 8vo., on crested paper, 21 Eccleston Square, 23rd March
