Scope and Contents

From the Series: These copious notes on a variety of subjects are Douglass's reactions to natural events and his observations about things he learned. Some accounts are his impressions from reading and studying. These two types of notes are considered "original." Douglass also copied a great deal of information from published sources, and this material has been labeled "published" notes. Some correspondence and related material concerning companies for mineral development with which Douglass became involved are also included in this section. These items are filed under the resource name with the scientific notes on the same subject. The notes are filed alphabetically by subject.
