George Nichols Packer is an author about whom relatively little is known; public information is limited, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and educational background are not clearly recorded. Only one work by him is currently held in the collection, namely Our Calendar. Judging from the title, the book concerns calendars, likely dealing with calendar systems, time reckoning, or the history of calendar reform; writing of this kind typically sets out the rules of a calendar, the arrangement of months and years, and the relations among different calendar systems for readers to consult and understand. Because the available information is confined to this single work, it is difficult to judge Packer's overall writing style or scholarly orientation, and his profession or field cannot be confirmed. Further assessment of his influence would require additional bibliography and biographical material.
