Description
In response to the resurgence of interest in American novelist, poet, short-story writer, and newspaper correspondent Elizabeth Stoddard (1823-1902), Jennifer Putzi and Elizabeth Stockton spent years locating, reading, and sorting through more than 700 letters, finally choosing eighty-four letters to annotate and include in this collection. By presenting complete, annotated transcripts, The Selected Letters provides a fascinating introduction to this compelling writer.
