1 Title:   Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker collection  Requires cookie*
  Creator:   Hooker, Joseph Dalton, Sir, 1817-1911  
  Dates:   1828-1909  
  Contents:  
The collection consists of papers of Sir Joseph D. Hooker from 1828-1909. His wife, Lady Hyacinth Hooker evidently removed letters from her husband's files and created a collection of letters, photographs, and autographs of their contemporaries. Addressed mainly to Hooker, the letters are from members of the Linnaen Society and the Royal Society of Arts, botanists, natural historians, statesmen and politicians, artists and literary figures, royalty, and European and American notables. The correspondence relates to Hooker's work at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, botany in general, and the Hooker's social activities.
