The
Mariners' Museum in Newport News, VA has recently posted an online exhibit of excerpts from Henry North Grant Bushby's unpublished 1900+ page manuscript
Notes on Knots:
http://www.marinersmuseum.org/library/notes-knots-henry-bushby-manuscriptIt appears to be quite an impressive work. I believe Dan Lehman, and perhaps a few others, have visited the museum and actually taken a look through this manuscript. (Given the storm and massive power outages in Dan's neck of the woods, I suspect it could be a few more days before he's back online...)
As far as Bushby himself, here are a few things I've managed to find:
An entry from his diary dating from WWI and a pen/pencil sketch of him from this period.. The webpage also includes the text of Bushby's obituary in
The Times from January 1926. (Note that death date in obit differs by one day from memorial linked below.)
A user on Flickr has posted
an image of a memorial plaque in a church in Wormley, Hertfordshire. The geocoding for the image is not specific, but from context appears to be in the
St. Laurence Church located here The text of the memorial reads:
In Loving Memory of Henry North Grant Bushby, of Wormley Bury. born sep. 6 . 1863, died jan. 14 . 1926. "He giveth His beloved sleep."Bushby also appears to have written a few articles on Japan, in the area of what would be considered economics or political science:
"
Korea from the Japanese Viewpoint", in
The Nineteenth Century and After, vol. 49, 1901, pp. 834-842.
"The Anglo-Japanese Treaty",
The Nineteenth Century, March 1902. (Found a citation to this in another work, not the original article. A similar sounding article is mentioned in the MM exhibit text.)
