He was assisted by Alexander Ramsay and James Thorne. It was sometimes popularly referred to as Knights Encyclopedia. It is in four divisions, each alphabetical, and very unequal: 1. * Geography (4 volumes and supplement) 2. * Natural history (4 volumes and supplement) 3. * Biography (with 703 lives of living persons; 6 volumes and supplement) 4. * Arts and sciences (8 volumes and supplement) A supplement in four volumes, one for each section, was published between 1869 and 1873, together with a synoptical index. No further editions of the English Cyclopaedia, however, it served as the basis of the Everyman's Encyclopaedia in 1913. (en)
