About This Item
Used book may have markings, writing from the previous owner. DJ has some bumping, rubbing on the top, spine, edges, corners. Outer edges have tanning, browning, stains and foxing. Back of book has had something heavy lying on it causing it to crease the spine and board but has not interfered with the reading material or pages. Pages deckled. This posthumous 1967 book contains Lewis's letters to a "widow four years older than Lewis, [Who] Once financially independent, had fallen upon privation and, [had] serious family problems, Lewis arranged through his American publishers a small stipend for her. About the time the correspondence began she turned from the Episcopal Church to the Roman Catholic. She is a writer of reviews, articles, poems and stories." [By her own request, she was originally kept anonymous when the letters were published; we now know she was Mrs. Mary Willis Shelburne. 1967. A30.
