Arthur Schlesinger Jr.: Presidents and other VIPs people Schlesinger's papers
After 19 books and thousands of articles and other writings over 70-plus years, the question is how many undiscovered nuggets of insight researchers may yet find in the private papers of Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr.
Quite a few, according to the curator of manuscripts at the New York Public Library, which recently acquired from Schlesinger's estate a trove of materials belonging to the noted historian, who died this year at age 89.
"Though Schlesinger drew on his journals as a source for his books on JFK and RFK, they will continue to be a valuable resource," said curator William Stingone. "It is likely that a vast majority of the 6,000 pages of his journal remain untapped if not unread."
