About John Evelyn

Sir John Evelyn (October 31, 1620 – February 27, 1706) was an English writer on the arts and sciences, and a founder member of the Royal Society. He is now chiefly valued for the light which his letters and his diary (kept from 1641 to 1706) cast on the social, political and intellectual history of his times.
