DescriptionsEdit Descriptions
- James Lees-Milne (1908-1997) was one of the foremost diarists of the 20th Century. The published diaries cover the period from 1942 to his death in 1997. His earlier life is described in his memoir Another Self.The original collections, published lately by Michael Russell, are listed with single numbers in the series here. Other differently edited volumes covering longer time periods have also been published as indicated by the bracketed ranges. The three volumes listed as Bloch arrangement 1, Bloch arrangement 2, and Bloch arrangement 3, were edited by J L-M's biographer, Michael Bloch, and published by John Murray - a significant chunk of J L-M's middle age is omitted from these.
