| Mark kept a diary of the main events in his life, which his son Clinton edited in the form of an Autobiography. His son George has made this Autobiography available by scanning each page, and sending me the scanned pages. I have put this document together as Mark Bostock's Autobiography. While there is much 'diary' in it., which is repetitive, the account of his early years is most interesting, and shows great spirit. |
