Description: "The generosity of Mr Ken Tomholt, grandson of Hamlet Cornish, in providing his grandfather's original handwritten manuscript is greatly appreciated. This has allowed a comparison with the early typed version which was used by Irene Shackcloth as the basis for her novel, The call of the Kimberley (1950). This original material has been added to the collecton of documents presented ot the Battye Library in 1950 by his mother, Mildred Jane Tomholt, as MN110, ACC7511A."--P. iv.
