This correspondence with Ezra Pound covers the years from 1949 to very nearly the end of his life. It began as an offer to help, in his difficult days in St. Elizabeths, Washington, D.C., and it grew into a whirlwind of paper and communication for a few years; then it diminished after 1953. For the following years there was only a few scattered letters set off by some particular event - a new magazine, a radio broadcast - and finally the correspondence came to an end with the complications about Pound's coming to the World Poetry Conference at Expo in 1967. "...a major contribution to our understanding of two distinguished North American poets.... Intrinsically delightful...." - Quill & QuireLouis Dudek is the author of 'Dk: Some Letters of Ezra Pound', published 1974 under ISBN 9780919688056 and ISBN 0919688055.
