Description: | Hardback notebook containing a partial manuscript draft of 'Child o' War: The True Story of a Boy Sailor in Nelson's Navy' (Collins, 1972) by Leon Garfield. The notebook contains what appears to be an early version of the first two chapters of the book, and evidences significant revision throughout. The notebook has then been reversed and used from the back, restarting the story from the beginning with a different version of the opening pages.
A white label has been stuck to the front cover of the notebook, identifying it as 'John Theophilus Lee' ['Child o' War' is based on the memoirs of Sir John Theophilus Lee]. This label is in Vivien Alcock's hand and was probably affixed to the notebook some time after Garfield's death. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Rights holder: | Seven Stories | Subjects: | Seven Stories | Source: | Seven Stories | Identifier: | LG/01/16 | Go to resource |
