Abstract
It is a pleasant though dangerous task to follow such distinguished speakers who have said most of what could reasonably be said already. In my own approach to the subject I speak somewhat on behalf of a body called the Survey of Sources for American Studies. This was set up, thanks to a generous grant from an American source, by a group of English scholars called the British Association of American Studies, in order to publish a book that would be a survey of and a guide to all records in Great Britain and Ireland that relate in any way to American history or literature. All I would claim for us is that we have tested the repertory of British records, as described by the previous speaker, more thoroughly than any other person or body; and have conducted a certain amount of original research, particularly in the sphere of business records….
