Scope and content
Digital File see p135 --> archive --> OCR --> Box 14 --> Other --> 002. O'Shaughnessy's notebook, self-paginated, and beginning on p 81. Diary style notes covering a trip to Europe, beginning with observational notes describing the materials being used in a dam project in London. The notebook follows diary style entries, and seem to capture aspects of O'Shaughnessy's trip to Europe, however the entries are not dated. On the 2nd page, he begins talking about Paris, includes some sketches, and has scrapbook like additions pasted into the notebook. It describes railways, undergrounds. One page is entitled 'European War 1914-1918', and lists the nation states and numbers mobilised, wounded, presumed missing with a total number of casualties. Later the notebook moves on to Geneva, including sketches of a hydraulic pumping plant there, with a dated entry of 5 Sep 1925. Milan to Venice are the next destinations that are described. The notebook ends in Portugal
