Description
Based on the work of the Economic and Social Research Council at the London School of Economics, this volume deals with the private papers of prominent individuals who have been active and influencial in British politics and public life since 1945. It represents a compact guide to the surviving papers of over 1200 individuals, including people active in the history of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. These include cabinet ministers, senior politicians, colonial governors and military commanders, trade unionists and industrialists, economists and social scientists, and a wealth of campaigners for individual cases. Key features include: entries in alphabetical order, providing a brief account of the particular career; a survey of the records which survive and notes on their location and availability. It concentrates on papers that have been deposited, or if still in private hands, where custodians are willing to facilitate the needs of researchers.
