Biographical / Historical
The autobiography was finally published after J J Robertson had made use of Thomson's manuscripts in his lecture, Godfrey Thomson. This generated interest in the material, and after Hector's permission was given, Sir James Duff edited the manuscript, and W B Inglis wrote the last chapter, Edinburgh and Moray House, which Thomson had not managed to finish.
