We have recorded spectra of iron-neon and iron-argon hollow cathode lamps in the region 1700A -- 5um (59000 -- 2000cm-1), with Fourier transform (FT) spectrometers at the National Solar Observatory, Tucson, Arizona, U.S.A. and Imperial College, London, U.K., and with a high resolution grating spectrograph at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, U.S.A. The uncertainty of the strongest lines in the FT spectra is <0.002cm-1 (0.2mA at 3000A; 8mA at 2um). Pressure and current-dependent shifts are <0.001cm-1 for transitions between low lying levels, increasing to 0.006 cm-1 for transitions between the most highly excited levels. We report 28 new energy levels of Fe I and revised values of another 818 levels. We have identified 9501 lines as due to 9759 transitions in Fe I, and these are presented in the form of a new multiplet table and finding list. This compares with the 5500 lines due to 467 energy levels in the multiplet tables of Moore (1950, 1959). The biggest increase is in the near ultraviolet and near infra-red, and many of the new lines are present in the solar spectrum. Experimental log(gf) values are included where available. A further 125 unidentified lines due to Fe I are given.
