Keever Reporting Notebook, 1968

This is a 4×6-inch spiral notebook kept by Beverly Deepe Keever while she was reporting from Vietnam in 1968. In addition to the professional shorthand Keever added her own distinct style of notations. Keever noted, in 2017, that translating her notebooks may remain an impossibility as the notes combine both professional and personal shorthand styles.

Cover, with a notation inside the front cover that reads, “Bombing Halt ’68”.
