Hotten, John Camden, 1832-1873.

Letters to and from British bookseller, publisher and author John Camden Hotten. Correspondents include poet Algernon Charles Swinburne, novelist W. Moy Thomas, writer William Michael Rossetti, and publisher Edward Moxon & Co.

Mayhew, Henry, 1812-1887.

One letter from the English author and reformer, seeking information regarding "the amount of the London traffic," presumably as research for one of his books.

Oliphant, Laurence, 1829-1888.

One letter from the British journalist, satirist and adventurer to "My dear Mr. Ruxton," regarding Oliphant's having joined one of Thomas Lake Harris' religious communities in New York.

Terhune, Alfred McKinley, 1899-1975

Papers of the American professor, biographer. Correspondence, writings, notes, and FitzGerald memorabilia brought together by Terhune to support his ongoing research which culminated in the publication of the four-volume The Letters of Edward FitzGerald (1830-1883), an effort begun by Terhune and completed after his death by his wife Annabelle Burdick Terhune. In addition to FitzGerald, the collection is representative of the interests of a number of individuals (Henry B. Lister, Waldo Maas, Terhune) and organizations (most notably the Omar Khayyam Club), and spans nearly a century of collecting tastes and history. It is therefore also a resource for other notable 19th century British writers and scholars including Bernard Barton, Francis Capper Brooke, E.B. Cowell, George Crabbe, Joseph Fletcher, A.P. Moor, Bernard Quaritch, Alfred Tennyson, and William Makepeace Thackeray. It also provides much information about Suffolk, England and its environs as well as insights into the character of the Victorian period.

Watts-Dunton, Theodore, 1832-1914.

British poet and critic. Four letters, one to William Michael Rossetti and three to Appleton and Co.
