In his notebooks Williams recorded his travels during his stint in the Navy then afterward on the Continent with his friends and family, and are an important source for study of Shelley's last days. This notebook contains many sketches, botanical specimens, fragments of poems, and one particular pencil portrait that might be of Shelley.
