Benjamin Harrison Archive: Volume 13 Ledger and Geological Notebook
Author: Benjamin Harrison
Year: 1893
This document is a detailed transcription of Benjamin Harrison's thirteenth archive volume, originally a narrow ledger book. It contains a chronological record of his geological excursions around Ightham and the Kent Plateau, observations of stone tool "eoliths," and extensive correspondence with prominent scientific figures of the era, such as Sir John Evans and Joseph Prestwich. The volume also includes various newspaper clippings, weather observations (noting the 1893 drought and the effects of the Krakatoa eruption), and personal anecdotes from his life as a village grocer and amateur archaeologist.
