About This Item
Kenneth Roberts, 1941. First Edition. Unknown. Fine. 2-page typed letter signed by Kenneth Roberts on his letterhead to 'Mr. Sisson', dated February 5, 1941, discussing an evident error Sisson has called to his attention in a manner that evidently nettled Roberts, relating to his portrayal of the weather during the Siege of Boston in his novel OLIVER WISWELL, which Roberts acscribed to Frothingham's SIEGE OF BOSTON. Roberts adds a 3-line holograph postscript noting that 'Frothingham's source for the cold of April 18th was Gordon's AMERICAN WAR.' Also has content relating to annotations in historical fiction, changes to the text, and typographic errors in OLIVER WISWELL. A fine example (with mailing creases).
