G. P. Gooch

Sir : I am writing a biography of the late G. P. Gooch, ots, for which Mr Bernard Gooch is kindly putting his father's papers at my disposal.

I should be very grateful for any material or information about Dr Gooch in his manifold activities, particularly as historian, politician (and Member of Parliament) as well as editor, which would help me in my task.

Correspondence made available to me would not necessarily have to be taken out of Britain. Frank Eyck Professor, Department of History, University of Calgary 44, Alberta, Canada
