Letters received from his wife Ruth from the time of their engagement in 1914 until his return from war in 1919.

George Mallory was an undergraduate at Magdalene College between 1905 and 1908 and studied history under A. C. Benson. He was secretary and later Captain of the Boat Club, a member of the College's Kingsley Club, the University's Fabian Society, and the Marlowe Dramatic Club. He was the College's representative on the committee of the University's Women's Suffrage Association. His circle of friends included many members of the Bloomsbury Group including Lytton and James Strachey, Duncan Grant (who painted several nude studies of him 1912-1913) and Maynard Keynes.

After graduating he stayed in Cambridge for a year to write an essay which he later published as Boswell the Biographer (1912).

Letters written to his wife Ruth from the time of their engagement in 1914 until his death in 1924. They cover his time as master at Charterhouse, his time serving in the First World War, his lecture tour in America, and the three trips he made to Everest.
