Material relating to Keith Dewhurst's novel 'Captain of the Sands', published in 1981 by Viking Press. Handwritten drafts of chapters 18 – 23, handwritten drafts of chapter 32 and chapters 34 – 37, and Notes pages relating to ‘A People’s Dream’, including a list of characters divided according to locations. This idea seems to have thematic concerns and settings that are closely aligned with ‘Captain of the Sands’.
