I wish everyone could write as well as E.B.White! It is a great pleasure to travel with him through his life by way of his letters! This collection is museum quality art that is available to us instantly upon picking up the book!

E.B. Whites letters are honest and intimate, insightful and extremely funny. White's letters often deal with his experiences and feelings about the writing process. Because of this, I would recommend reading his letters before reading collections of his essays. These letters are as satisfying, if not more so, than any biography.

This wonderful collection of letters by the gentle and wise Mr. White will be of keen interest to all that enjoy fine writing. All the better if one has an interest in The New Yorker magazine, the children's book Charlotte's Web, English grammar, boating, farming in Maine, or just the everyday thoughts of one of our country's greatest essayists.

E.B. White was fortunate in having a talented granddaughter, who has extended the first edition of this book (its letters having ended with 1975 or 76) through to the completion of his journey in 1984.
