Papers, c. 1870s-c. 1940.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/207177182

Much of the material in this collection pertains to Washburn's book on Roosevelt, including correspondence with Roosevelt and members of his family. There are typescript copies of correspondence, 1902-1911, between Roosevelt and William Howard Taft (1857-1930) that were given to Washburn by Taft. This correspondence provides important evidence for the break between Taft and Roosevelt, and Washburn utilized it in his unpublished revision of the 1916 book. (The correspondence itself was closed to researchers until 1947 and Washburn's revision may not be copied or quoted.). There is some material pertaining to Washburn's book on Worcester, including notes he made from an examination of Worcester newspapers, 1775-1866. There are also typescripts of many of his addresses and articles. The rest of the collection includes family and personal correspondence, materials generated by his work as a legislator, and correspondence with his friend Henry Cabot Lodge (1850-1924).
