Stevens, Benjamin Franklin (1833–1902) and Henry Stevens (1819–86)

The Oxford Companion to American Literature | 1995 | | Copyright

Stevens, Benjamin Franklin (1833–1902) and Henry Stevens (1819–86) were born in Vermont but emigrated to England, respectively in the 1860s and 1840s, where their interests as bibliophiles and antiquarians led them into the rare‐book business, for a time together, later separately. The younger created a 180‐volume manuscript index to the manuscripts in foreign archives relating to America between 1773 and 1783; the elder reprinted rare items from his collections and wrote Recollections of Mr. James Lenox (1886), telling of his part in creating the great Lenox Library (see Lenox, James).
