BASTABLE, CHARLES FRANCIS 1855-1945

 
 

After his death, Bastable's library was placed at the disposal of the School of Economics, Trinity College, Dublin. His papers do not seem to have been included with this. Since then a small group of about a dozen letters to him, and some printed papers, have been deposited in the Library of Trinity College.
