<p>Diana Fontaine Maury Corbin (1837-1900) was the daughter of Matthew Fontaine Maury. Her biography of her father is a compilation of letters organized with a narrative sketch of his life. Mrs. Corbin emphasized his scientific life along with his devotion to his family. She also defines his work with the Confederacy and his fact-finding trips to Mexico after the War Between the States seeking the possibility of the colonization of “A New Virginia.” At last the family is united in Virginia when Matthew Fontaine Maury accepted a teaching post at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington.</p>
