Reference to Moore's writing in The Listener 1937; teaching how to see in a sculptural and three dimensional way; Mary Moore's childhood games; holidays in Broadstairs, Kent; Henry Moore photographing his own work; the development of modern communication on the world view of sculpture; Zwemmer's bookshop; British Museum and Musée de L'Homme; and Moore's collection of natural objects and pebbles, books, postcards and sketch books.
