Smith provides a clear retelling of their famous and tempestuous relationship and lays to rest some of the ridiculous stories about Dee. Charlotte Smith's biography draws from Dee's private diaries and several of his important works including \u003ci\u003eThe Book of the Mysteries\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA True and Faithful Relation\u003c\/i\u003e, bringing to light all his truly remarkable accomplishments. As a man of great learning, he fell under the suspicion of his less-gifted contemporaries and suffered rumor and even imprisonment. But for the most part, he was quite famous in his day, serving as mathematician, astronomer, and astrologer to the royal court of England. Smith credits him for initiating the creation of England's National Library.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charlotte Fell Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0892541040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780892541041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicolas-Hays\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 342\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 6.30w x 1.15d","brand":"Charlotte Fell Smith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065230668031,"sku":"9780892541041","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_51c6fe5b-0e77-4cb2-b50d-b76c4e19721d.jpg?v=1768673839","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-dee-charlotte-fell-smith-9780892541041","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
