Scope and content
The manuscripts and publications in this series constitute only a portion of Professor Falls’ prodigious output but they do provide the researcher with a good idea of its range and depth, especially when considered with the files in Series 7. The files contain drafts of manuscripts in most cases, with covering correspondence and reviewers’ appraisals in many cases, and some offprints. There are also some research and other notes present. The appraisers’ reports underline the difficulties that even seasoned and highly respected academics can face in attempting to find a publisher for their research.
