Chapter 10 in Alfred Marshall, 2007, pp 185-200 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Alfred Marshall’s legacy was both a rich and an enduring one. From his personal estate he left his library and papers to the Cambridge Faculty of Economics and Politics, together with money to maintain it. His widow, for close to the two decades by which she survived her husband, helped as librarian of what became the Marshall Library of the Cambridge Faculty of Economics and Politics. The printed catalogue of this library, issued in 1927 within a few years of Marshall’s death, indicates the extent and value of this part of his legacy to the faculty he had created at Cambridge (as is discussed later in this chapter).
