The Library’s first online exhibit is now up! This exhibit showcases Henry Bushby’s manuscript “Notes on Knots.” Composed of eight volumes with over 1,900 hand-written pages and beautifully drawn pen and ink diagrams, Bushby’s manuscript represents an in depth study of knotting and ropework, as well as knot theory. Be sure to click on the images for a close-up view of Bushby’s illustrations and text.
