- This book uses two major source bases, one entirely new, the other used only once before. These are c. 5,000 pages of Jenkins’s private office in Brussels and the 1000+ pages of his ‘European Diary’. Complementing them are interviews, European Commission records, and British, French, and German files. Unusually, the book analyses the entire range of policy priorities of the Commission President rather than just one, allowing a much fuller assessment. Research and writing took two and a half years.
