High resolution transmission electron microscope observations of grain boundaries in hexagonal boron nitride in which adjacent grains are rotated with respect to one another about either <2 (1) over bar (1) over bar 0> or <10 (1) over bar 0> directions are shown to be free of intergranular glass, in agreement with previous work. The implication of these observations is that the solid-solid boundary energies of such grain boundaries in hexagonal boron nitride are relatively small in magnitude.
