This collection contains approximately 225 letters between Elizabeth von Arnim and Alexander Stuart Frere discussing their relationship, daily life, her writing process, and the rise of Hitler. There are also letters from Patricia Wallace Frere to her husband concerning the last illness and death of Elizabeth and a series of letters from Karen Usborne, who wrote the first biography of Elizabeth published in 1986. Also included are two novel drafts, a novel in letters, poems, a book review, and personal notebooks. The collection also includes a large number of photographs in which Alexander Stuart Frere was either the photographer or the subject; some of the photographs were identified by Frere, but the majority are unidentified. The ephemera in the collection includes printed material, a book given to Frere by Elizabeth von Arnim, book reviews, a bank cheque for five pounds from von Arnim made out to Frere, and newspaper clippings.
