John Dee (1527–1608), scientist and manuscript collector, lost his library in a burglary in 1583, and died in poverty. This reissue contains editions of Dee's diaries by Halliwell (1842) and Bailey (1880), his personal library inventories (James, 1920), and his appeal to Elizabeth I for financial help (Crossley, 1851).
