 Item — Box: 4, Folder: 7

Scope and Content

From the Collection: Archive 319 contains an immense wealth of research notes, photocopies of documents, and important and rare interviews pertaining to all aspects of the period of the Third Reich. Besides book reviews of Fraenkel/Manvell works, Box 1 contains old as well as contemporary international newspaper clippings representing all aspects of political and civil life in Nazi Germany. The transcripts of interviews and conversations located in the second half of this box not only show interesting information and research findings on which a good deal of the authors' books are based on, but also a great wealth of personal experience and aspects not used in the monographs.

Various unpublished and published essays, reports and book manuscripts (Box 2) broaden the knowledge of the Nazi period also in regard to issues not dealt with in the Fraenkel/Manvell monographs.

Photocopies of documents from different German archives form the core of the archive (Box 3). The voluminous research the two authors have done is barely reflected in the inventory below and only indicates some of the material the folders contain. Even though the research notes and photocopies of the documents are in a rough order according to topics dealt with in their books, the entire contents of the 16 folders can well be related to many other topics not mentioned in the inventory nor written about in the monographs.

Box 4 contains information on the authors' book on Rudolf Hess as well as on attempts to free Rudolf Hess from Spandau prison in Berlin. The second part of the box contains miscellaneous documents and information pertaining to all aspects of Nazi and post WW II Germany. The last part contains photographs of Roger Manvell's collection, many of which can be viewed in their books, as well as others that have not been published. For further detailed information see inventory.
