Brian Adams was one of The Charles Close Society's earliest and most active members. He died peacefully, shortly before Christmas 2005, at his home in Fulham. The Society has published a small book Projections and Origins, the collected works of Brian Adams. Brian's research papers, associated maps and books are to be deposited in the Charles Close Society Archives in Cambridge University Library. Future resarchers will have the benefit of Brian's collected papers on topograpic and geodetic survey being preserved as a coherent whole. A catalog of this collection can be downloaded from the Charles Close Society web site by following this link. You will need Microsoft Excel.
