Abstract:
In his personal diaries Richard Burton is a man quite different from the one we familiarly know as acclaimed actor, international film star, and jet-set celebrity. From his private, handwritten pages there emerges a different person. This volume publishes in their entirety the surviving diaries of Richard Burton (born Richard Jenkins, 1925-1984).
