{"value"=>"<p>The journals chronicle Browne's travels throughout the United States, Europe, the Middle East and the South Pacific. The journals are arranged into five continuous subseries. Subseries 1, Volumes 1-41, contains the original manuscripts of Browne's writings of his observations in the United States and abroad; these observations include visits to agricultural and chemical sites, the people and customs Browne encountered, and historical sites. The writings are supplemented by photographs and letters. The photographs include pictures of the south and northwestern United States, Great Britain, Egypt, Australia, New Zealand and Sweden. Subseries 2, Volumes 42-52, consists of typescripts extracted from volumes 1-41. Volume 52 is an index to volumes 42-51. Subseries 3, Volume 53 is Browne's account of visits to European agricultural museums, 1929-1938. Subseries 3, Volumes 54-58, contains journals of Browne's visit to Australia to attend the Congress of the International Society of Sugar Cane Technologists held in Brisbane from August 27 to September 3, 1935. Volumes 57-58 are duplicate carbon typescripts. Subseries 4, Volumes 59-60, is a record of chemical and agricultural observations in Great Britain, France, Holland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark during 1938. Subseries 5, Volumes 61- 69, is a miscellaneous assortment of material including duplicate chemical reprints of articles by Browne 1936-1945; a list of Browne's publications 1896-1945, an incomplete typescript of Browne's monograph, A Source Book of Agricultural Chemistry, and unpublished papers by Browne. The remaining material consists of Browne's \"Laboratory Journal of Interviews\" as chemist in charge of New York Sugar Trade Laboratory 1919-1923. The title is misleading; it is chiefly a diary in which are recorded Browne's conversations with chemists about sugar production. (Container no. 18).</p>"}
