Summary
Writing that the stories in "Colonel Markensan and Less Pleasant People" "represent the only genuine hack work I ever did"; speculating that the same must be true for Mark Schorer, whom he wrote them with; giving Wagenknecht notice that he is sending four books, two of which he would like reviews for, including"The Watcher on the Heights" and "A Wisconsin Harvest"; mentioning the other two are too far advanced for the review stage, but that he would like Wagenknecht to add them to his collection.
