Evelyn Waugh

The library has been collecting books, manuscripts, and letters by this major English writer for a number of years. We can be proud of our extensive holdings of Waugh letters, and despite very much a bull market, we have even managed to corral a few significant manuscript items. Somewhat disappointingly, however, we have not been able to put together a complete roster of this distinguished writer's first editions. We have 20 of the 36 first English editions; needless to say, we'd like to have them all. Encouraged by the success of our appeal for works by William Everson (noted elsewhere in this issue), we hasten to make known our modest needs to our Library Associates and friends. Place of publication in all instances is London.
