This volume brings together previously inaccessible observations, offering insight into Oakeshott's intellectual trajectory and personal life.

An original editorial introduction provides context for the compilation of each notebook, allowing readers to see which works influenced Oakeshott's ideas. This collection is an essential addition to any library of his works, providing a clearer record of his intellectual influences than previously available.
