| Description | Notebook with covers labelled with notes to indicate content. There is some pagination from both front and back and although it is mostly only the right hand pages which are numbered, this is not consistent throughout. A few pages have been torn out form both ends.
The content from one end includes drafts of his articles 'Democracy' (pages one-four) [published in Eboracum in 1970 and then as broadsheet number six, 1971] and 'War of Generations' (page 19) and drafts of his speech to the Conservative Bow Group (pages five-nine) [delivered in 1969 and published as broadsheet number three in 1970]. There are various drafts of letters, some of which are letters to the press and other correspondents include Dr Vom Berg, Constantine Fitzgibbon and Bob [Robert Boothby] and various notes.
The content from the other end includes drafts of a new footnote for the paperback edition of 'My Life' relating to the Birmingham Proposals published on page 184 (page three) and various lists of points, notes and draft text which has not been identified. There is also some draft correspondence, some of which is dated to 1969-70. Correspondents include his biographer, Robert Skidelsky. |
