Theos-Talk Archives (May 2000 Message tt00273)

Bart, was the first edition of the SD edited by
committee?  True, certain persons helped her
with the SD but HPB was in charge of the
editing.  This can be seen from various
proofcopies of pages from the SD.

It was her habit to go over all of the material
making additions, changes up to the last
minute.  No, HPB was in charge of the
final editing.
