Hmm.. I can't really find anything about him online. It would be interesting to at least know his birth/death dates and a little about his education, etc... Womble 23:20, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

  • The encyclopedia was first published in 1900 in London, so I think we'll have to talk to the London Library for this one. I'll see what I can find. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-11-11 06:11
  • I found some interesting information. It was named for Peter Austin Nuttall. It appears that the publisher (Frederick Warne) acquired these old books that Nuttall published back in the 1860s, and hired people like James Wood to bring them up to date. See details and external link at The Nuttall Encyclopaedia. — BRIAN0918 • 2005-11-11 06:28
