http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/175317090

The Nuttall papers consist of photographs of a diary made during Nuttall's 1810-1811 explorations. The diary contains 124 pages and dates from April 12, 1810 to Sept. 1810. Other Nuttall papers in the Gray Herbarium archives include 3 letters from Nuttall to Asa Gray and 2 copies of Gray's responses, in the Historic Letters file; 1 letter from Nuttall in the Thaddeus William Harris collection; and 1 letter from Nuttall to William Darlington and a sheet which is described as some of the manuscript of his Genera in Mrs. Gray's autograph collection. There is also a small set of original drawings (not drawn by Nuttall) for his North American Sylva, with notes prepated by Elixabeth Dean Bennett in 1928 comparing them to the published illustrations.
