World War, Oxford, (1986). ISBN-10: 0198581424, ISBN-13:
978-0198581420. ‘Lutz’ Haber was Haber’s third child from his second
marriage to Charlotte Nathan. ‘Lutz’ settled in the UK and eventually
became a respected historian at the University of Surrey. He died in 2004.

84. One initially has some sympathy with Klason and the Chemistry committee
here. External nominations for Haber from the Allied nations were naturally
non-existent because of the war. In normal circumstances, or had Haber
confined his enthusiasm to nitrate production only, one could have expected
much more support for what was widely accepted as a process worthy of an
award. In proposing Haber, Klason was pursuing a personal agenda by
‘normalising’ the situation.
85. Szöllözi-Janze, op. cit. (note 47), p. 481. The date provided by Sollozi-Janze
differs from that given by Robert in conversation with Chirnside (Chap. 18).
Here, Robert says he left ‘in November’ 1918, but this was probably a
mistake by Chirnside. In his three-page letter to UCL in 1961, Robert
confirms leaving in December (Chap. 1).
