[edit] Collection Summary
The Bassett Papers consist of personal correspondence from his doctoral studies at Johns Hopkins, his career in academia at Trinity College (now Duke University) and Smith College, and correspondence from his time as Secretary of the American Historical Association from 1920 to 1928. (Bassett died prematurely in a streetcar accident, and the correspondence for the period remained in his papers.)
