Letters--mostly of the nuts-and-bolts, practical variety--between
Thomas Wolfe and his literary agent, Elizabeth Nowell. Nowell
served as Wolfe's editor for many of his short stories, paring them
down to make them acceptable to magazines. Oddly enough, his
attitude toward her was grateful rather than adversarial, and their
deep mutual respect is clearly evident in these letters.
