finding LETTERS HOME

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

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.
