This series contains the autobiographical writings of Hans Speier and also includes transcripts of two interviews. Of particular interest are the typescripts of his published autobiography, From the Ashes of Disgrace: A Journal from Germany 1945-1955. The early versions of many of the typescript sections were taken from Speier's log notes for his trips to Germany for the Rand Corporation in the 1950s. (The complete log notes are located in Series 5: The Rand Corporation materials.).
