We give a detailed account of the recent retrieval of a consistent amount(about 600 pages) of documents written by Enrico Fermi and/or hiscollaborators, coming from different sources previously unexplored. Thesedocuments include articles, patents, reports, notes on scientific and technicalmeetings and other papers, mainly testifying Fermi's activity in the 1940sabout nuclear pile physics and engineering. All of them have been carefullydescribed, pointing out the relevance of the given papers for their scientificor even historical content. From the analysis of these papers, a number ofimportant scientific and technical points comes out, putting a truly new lighton the Fermi's (and others') scientific activity about nuclear piles and theirapplications. Quite unexpectedly intriguing historical remarks, such as thoseregarding the relationships between U.S. and Britain, just after the end of thewar, about nuclear power for pacific and/or military use, or even regardinglong term physics research and post-war research policy, emerge as well.
