Copy memorandum on Australian and New Zealand naval defence by Winston Churchill [First Lord of the Admiralty], 1939-11-21
Scope and Contents
The collection, though small, is interesting as no other papers appear to have been left by Hore-Belisha. It comprises letters, diaries, some photographs and documents (mainly copies) covering most of Hore-Belisha's career but concentrating on his most important position as War Minister from 1937-1939 and particularly the events surrounding his dismissal by Neville Chamberlain.
