Thoreau Appeal

The editors of “Correspondence” in “The Writings of Henry D. Thoreau” would appreciate hearing from owners of letters to or from Thoreau who have not already been approached by this editorial project or by Prof. Walter Harding. We would also welcome information about the location of other Thoreau manuscripts, particularly those tipped into the first volume of the 800 sets of the “Manuscript” and “Deluxe Walden Editions of 1906” (“The Writings of Henry David Thoreau, ed. Bradford Torrey and Francis H. Allen (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1906)), from owners whom we have not approached in the course of our research.
