bulk of the collection consists of shooting scripts, research, transcripts of interviews,

the welfare system, violence in Northern Ireland, nuclear power, and the Vietnam conflict
and the problems of the veterans of that era. Also present are script materials for Guns of August (Universal, 1964), a full-length
