Scope and Content

Hardback scrapbook containing press cuttings relating to Rosemary Manning's books for children and her books for adults. The majority of the cuttings are from British and American publications, although there are a small number of cuttings from South African and Australian publications. Although many of the cuttings are pasted into the scrapbook, there are also numerous loose cuttings which were inserted into the pages of the book. Some pages also appear to have been cut out of the book. These cuttings refer to 'Green Smoke'; 'Dragon in Danger'; 'Look Stranger' [adult novel]; 'The Shape of Innocence' [adult novel]; 'The Dragon's Quest'; 'The Chinese Garden' [adult novel]; 'The Dragon's Quest'; 'A Grain of Sand'; 'Man on a Tower' [adult novel]; 'Heraldry'; 'Arripay'; and 'The Rocking Horse'. The file also contains a quantity of German reviews of 'Man on a Tower', along with a royalty statement dated 1968 for the German edition of 'Man on a Tower'.
