The Archive.
The full T. M. Witherow archive is a substantial private collection and a developing commercial asset. This website presents a carefully chosen snapshot: enough to show its range, provenance and character without placing the full research collection online.
The surviving material includes cine film, photographs, a 1919–20 Waziristan field journal, the official 1942 Burma campaign report of 27th Mountain Regiment, counter-battery papers, letters, navigation and voyage records, and personal artefacts.
