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.

Matthew, do you (or anyone else for that matter) know how many issues of=20
'The Book of Gold' were produced?  I received a copy of #2 but never heard =
of=20
any more after that.  I'm especially interested in chasing down more obscure
secondary bibliography on Wolfe as I have been keeping a file of such items
for quite a while.

There were also some articles in Vector that I came across while living
in the UK in the early 80's but I'm sure there have probably been others
since then.  Does anyone know an easy way (relatively) to get=20
access to such information?  (That question must sound odd coming from a=20
librarian!)

I have ambitions of (someday when I get the time)  producing an annotated
bibliography of secondary works on Wolfe (of which I wish there were more).
