Appendix A: Correspondence and Reference Collections

R.W.J. Collections

Correspondence

The correspondence used for this study has been placed in nine archival boxes, classified into separate numbered files by the person’s name and inserted into numbered sleeves. There is substantial crossover between the correspondence of many of the listed people in the collections, and names in some instances have had to be combined in the listings given below. Some files contain material from people with whom I did not correspond directly—notably, John Gunther, J.K. Murray, Marie Reay, Nancy White and F.W. Williams. The archival boxes, which are referred to as the ‘R.W.J. Collections’ in the reference list at the end of the book, will be offered for donation to the National Library of Australia.
