"The diaries offer a unique opportunity to share almost five years of the life and work of a scholar at the turn of the nineteenth century. Such an opportunity is rarely available. Fully annotated, as John Bowman is presenting it, it gives a new depth of dimension to the work Proctor has left us." - Dr. Lotte Hellinga Fomerly Deputy Keeper The British Library "John Bowman's editorial work is impeccable and entirely in keeping with the highest scholarly standards to which Proctor himself would have adhered. The transcription is meticulous and notes are included with each day's entry to elucidate their content." - David Pearson University of London Research Library Services"
