This June, we are celebrating Joseph Banks’ botanical discoveries in partnership with the bibliophile journal The Book Collector, who are here making available three articles on themes related to our exhibition Joseph Banks: A Lincolnshire Botanist in Australia from their archive.

The articles were written by Nicolas Barker, Colin Franklin, and Anke Timmermann, and published in The Book Collector in 1989, 2004, and the latest issue of 2020 respectively.
