Sir Edward Herbert Bunbury, 9th Baronet (8 July 1811 – 5 March 1895), known as Edward Bunbury until 1886, was a British barrister and a Liberal Party politician.
In 1847, Bunbury was elected to the House of Commons for Bury St Edmunds, a seat he held until 1852.
[3] Bunbury's two-volume history of ancient geography[4] published in 1879 is the first modern work in English which treats the textual sources with any sophistication.
He was also a contributing author to the Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography (1854–57),[5] and to a number of other reference works.
Samuel Sharpe thought Bunbury had plagiarised his work on the Ptolemies.
