Scope and content
Contains correspondence, photocopies, newspaper clippings, notes and draft manuscripts compiled by Alsop in the course of her research for a biography of McPherson. Intermingled with Alsop’s research documents are other records kept by McPherson during his career that were later used by Alsop as part of her research. There are significant records from McPherson’s period as custodian of enemy property as well as a type-written transcript of a lengthy oral recording describing the McPherson family in detail.
