"The Diaries of John Dee" by John Dee, edited by Edward Fenton

"John Dee was not just a mystic and mathematician, adviser to Francis Drake and astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I: he also kept the first great diary in the English language. Now his private journals and spirit diaries are brought together for the first time, compiled from the original documents in the Bodleian Library and the British Museum."
