Guinn, James Miller, 1834-1918. "Memorial Day Address:" [speech] [undated]. Address given to the Grand Army of the Republic. 1 item
Manuscripts
The collection is arranged alphabetically by title. The first box contains twelve of Guinn's autograph notebooks from his research on California in general - and on many specific California counties - which served as the basis for a number of local histories he published near the turn of the century. The collection's second box features autograph and typescript drafts of Guinn's speeches and papers, many of which were published in the Annual Publications of the Historical Society of Southern California or one of Los Angeles' many newspapers. Also included are a number of speeches on the methods and practice of education. The collection's third box contains a rather extensive collection of autograph and typescript manuscripts which formed the basis for Guinn's three-volume magnum opus A History of California and an Extended History of Los Angeles and Environs (1915).
