Edit ProfileCareer
He became known for broadcast radio talks, chiefly on historical themes, and as a panellist on British Broadcasting Corporation radio"s Round Britain Quiz, when he affected a testy, hyperacademic persona. In 1963, he received a knighthood. He is buried in the Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground in Cambridge, according to A Guide to Churchill College, Cambridge: text by Doctor Mark Goldie, pages 62 and 63 (2009).
He appears to have had a working relationship with political scientist AFK Organski.
A copy of the latter"s book "World Politics" (New York: Alfred A Knopf, 1958) in the Glasgow University Library contains the following hand written note on the first blank page:
"To Doctorate.W. Brogan, In thanks for some delightful hours of talk, Kenneth Organski, New York, August 11 1959". The book was presented to the GUL by Sir Denis Brogan.
