George Watson described the correspondents in (or, on occasion, subjects of) this sequence as 'prominent persons'. It should be noted that correspondence from a number of these figures appears in other series of the Watson papers: in the case of the subject-specific series the reasoning is obvious, but it is less so in the case of the 'ex libris' items. Watson's separation has been maintained, and his alphabetical sequencing tidied. Items will ultimately be catalogued individually; for now, a list of correspondents/subjects follows. The preface '///' indicates that the file in question does not contain correspondence between George Watson and the named person. Other correspondents included in individual files are listed in parentheses.

REVIEWS

George Watson kept this material together: a proposal for a book on the relationship between genocide and socialism is accompanied by material on the articles 'Rehearsal for the Holocaust?' (1981), 'The Disinvitation of Nolte' (1989), 'How the Holocaust was hidden' (1990), 'Alfred Rosenberg: The Triumph of Tedium' (1995) and 'The Indictment of a People' (1998).

Note that 'The Lost Literature of Socialism' (1998) and the article 'Never Blame the Left' (1995), both containing arguments overlapping with the material here, were filed separately by Watson and so have been treated by the cataloguer as distinct subseries. That a promotional flyer for 'The Lost Literature of Socialism' is included in this subseries strongly suggests that it arose from the book proposed here.

Items will ultimately be catalogued individually; for now, a list follows.
