OPERATION ARES and the Kai Lung books seem to be readily available (my
favorite search site is http://www.addall.com/used), but how about LETTERS
HOME?  Is it available anywhere at a reader's, rather than collector's,
price?  And would any reader care to describe the contents?

Thanks...

Mr. DiGiacomo,

_Letters Home_ is a collection of "all the letters,
and fragments of letters, that survive from" Wolfe's
service in Korea.  He also says in his introduction
that "[m]ost readers of my novels will find little
of interest in these letters," but that he thinks
they ought to be preserved.

I've taken him at his word, and haven't gotten
around to reading it.  I'm afraid I also don't have
any information on its availability or price.
