Scope and content
Thinks that Bevan's idea is right, though he will devote most space to Baghdad and Cairo before the 11th century. Believes that Stanley Lane-Poole is the best man. Hates the word culture though anthropologists love it. Has read an item on the Bulgarian kingdom but was unimpressed. Hopes that JRT will come to Cambridge to vote against the feminists.
