1939 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT TAHITIAN TRAVEL DIARY, LETTERS AND OBSERVATIONS OF PRE WAR TAHITI BY FAMED POET, PUBLISHER AND ARTIST WRITTEN TO HIS PARENTS

On offer is the remarkable, original handwritten manuscript journal and diary by Desmond Harmsworth regarding his travels in the South Pacific. Over 150 pp written as letters to his mother and father, Lady and Lord Harmsworth. Desmond and sometimes his wife Dorothy write long, detailed intimate letters detailing their travel, observations and growing concerns while in Tahiti on the cusp of the War. The original 3 ring style book is in terrible shape given the covers are distressed and the rear is present but off. Some pages are detached but otherwise holding well.
