BOX R 32-R 57 Diaries (Restricted), 1937-2014
The Diaries (Restricted) series consists of diaries and journals kept by Wouk detailing his professional accomplishments, as well as personal, family, and historical events that occurred throughout his life. The series consists primarily of eighty-seven volumes of diaries dating from November 1937 to 2014. Wouk destroyed Volume 2, covering the period of February 1938 to August 1939, before transferring the diaries to the Library of Congress. From November 2005 to March 2012, Wouk switched from the traditional diary format to files labeled "Atzmi." These files are a briefer recording of notable occurrences, rather than a day-by-day running account. Wouk produced digital scans of his diaries for the Library of Congress in 2008, prior to the transfer of the physical volumes. The series also includes a commonplace book, financial journals, and travel logs.
Access to the Diaries series is restricted until 2039.
Material types include handwritten and typescript bound and loose volumes.
Arranged by type. Diaries arranged chronologically. Other journals arranged alphabetically by title.
