Excerpt from Sir William Ramsay: Memorials of His Life and Work
Every reader of this volume will at once perceive that its compilation would have been impossible but for the active co-operation of many friends. Foremost among them was, of course, Lady Ramsay, who has not only placed at the disposal of the writer the immense collection of letters preserved by herself and by members of the family on both sides, but she has contributed many facts and incidents, and with her own pen has set down her recollections of the journeys taken with her husband to the West and to the East.
