About this title:

Synopsis: John Aubrey 1626-1697 , one of the first "scientific" or archaeological antiquaries, wrote much but published little, and has long been known more as the acquaintance of famous 17th-century Englishmen Harvey, Hobbes, Hook, Wren, and many others than as a subject for critical study in his own right. This book attempts to "do something to redress the balance in favour of Aubrey's intellectual rather than social activities" p.14 . Includes a brief chapter on Aubrey's Library. Indexed. 256 pages, with one leaf. cloth, dust jacket.. 8vo..
