Scope and content

This is a tightly focused collection. In addition to Genthieu's typsescript, liberally corrected by hand by Cockcroft, there is some pro-forma correspondence in which Genthieu introduces himself, explains the thrust of his proposed article and makes his request for assistance. The responses are mostly by Cockcroft's secretary, but there is one letter signed by Cockcroft himself.

Dates: 1959
