Publications,

This class consists of what material there is among the papers on Thomas Jones's publications in the broad sense. There is a little interesting early material on his Everyman edition of Mazzini, the typescript of an apparently unfinished work on government, and some correspondence with Hankey on the publication of secret documents and other material relating to A Diary with Letters. In addition, a mass of cuttings, drafts, etc., of ephemeral material has been classified under articles (considered broadly), reviews, broadcasts and talks. Material relating to his book on Lloyd George may be found under Lloyd George in class A. The material in this class in no way represents a complete collection of Thomas Jones's work. Arranged into: Mazzini, 1896-1955 (Y 1); Prime Ministers (draft), Diary with Letters (Y 2); Articles, 1899-1955 (Y 3); Reviews, 1924-1952 (Y 4); Broadcasts, 1934-1955, talks, 1910-1955 (Y 5).

Printed diaries,

When Thomas Jones was appointed to the Cabinet Secretariat in 1916, his friend Professor Maurice Powicke urged him to keep a diary, and throughout the years Thomas Jones made a careful record of the events and activities in which he was involved, preserving letters, notes of conversations, descriptions of ministerial conferences and similar material. A selection of such material, from the years after his resignation from the Secretariat, was published in his Diary with Letters. Thomas Jones had grouped the earlier and more secret material into similar form. When he heard that T. E. Lawrence had lost the first draft of the Seven Pillars, Thomas Jones became alarmed for the security of his own papers, and resolved to have them printed. The printer he chose was an old friend, Dr Ernst H. Zellweger, a Swiss whom he had first met at the Berlitz School of Languages in Glasgow when Thomas Jones was at the University. Zellweger, who was the Headmaster of Talhof School, St Gallen, Switzerland, directed a printing establishment at Flawil, and in 1937, several copies of the Diary were printed there. During the War, a copy of the Diary was stored in Switzerland for security. The Diaries, printed in 22 small volumes, cover the period 1899-1937, and form class Z of the collection.
