At the age of 38, he published \u003cem\u003eMy Reminiscences\u003c\/em\u003e, and later \u003cem\u003eOld Diaries: 1881-1901\u003c\/em\u003e. Both were extremely well-received.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever his original diaries on which these were based, amounting to 48 volumes, have remained neglected. A privately-funded crowd transcription effort in 2025 saw the diaries for 1867 and 1868 fully transcribed, and those for 1901 and 1902 partially.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese are now published by Alchemie Academic in fully-annotated editions for scholars. Readers with a general interest in Lord Ronald Gower will be better served with his own two autobiographical works, which are in the public domain, but also, and most especially, volume two of the trilogy \u003cem\u003eA Secret Between Gentlemen: Suspects, Strays \u0026amp; Guests\u003c\/em\u003e.
