Robert Francis Kilvert started his famous Diary on 1 January 1870. The first entry in the published version starts on 18 January, so we do not know if he gave a reason for starting to keep a diary on that particular date. Fortunately he does say on 3 November 1874: 'Why do I keep this voluminous journal? I can hardly tell. Partly because life appears to me such a curious and wonderful thing that it seems a pity that even such a humble and uneventful life as mine should pass altogether away without some such record as this, and partly too because I think the record may amuse and interest some who come after me'. Kilvert was probably thinking of family, not that his diary would eventually be read world-wide. The diary runs from January 1870 until just before his death on 23 September 1879. We believe the diary filled about twenty-nine notebooks. Mrs Kilvert removed all the notebooks from 9 September 1875 to 1 March 1876 and 27 June 1876 to 31 December 1877, we believe for personal reasons. She removed all mention of herself. On Mrs Kilvert's death in 1911 the remaining twenty-two notebooks were passed to Kilvert's sister Dora Pitcairn who in turn left them to her niece Frances Essex Hope, née Smith. She loaned them to her brother Perceval Smith. He recognised their potential and took them to Jonathan Cape in 1937. Their reader William Plomer also realised their worth and agreed to prepare them for publication. The first volume appeared on sale in 1938 followed by the second in 1939 and the third in 1940. which totalled about one-third of the original material. If complete it would have made nine substantial volumes, but with war looming and paper shortages, no more could be printed. The Diary was well received and proved very popular as a reminder of an age of peace and order, a time that had disappeared but was still within living memory. Ref PPP 2.
