The products of Siggins' thorough research, the first series contains magazine and news clipping, correspondence, biographical information on subjects and informants, notes, bibliographies, background materials, chronologies, photographs, articles, and copies of archival documents. The second series consists of audio recordings and/or transcripts of interviews with an extensive array of individuals who played major or minor roles in the events Siggins describes.

The final series consists of outlines, drafts, manuscripts, galleys and correspondence relating to the writing and publication of the books.

Relating to the 'Bassett' book, the fonds includes only tape recorded interviews.
