- Scope and Content
- Letter to poet Richard Eberhart concerns a potential review in the New York Review of Books for a book by John Hall Wheelock. Hardwick replies to the inquiry, "We haven't worked out anything yet about the fall issues. I can't say, when we go into the smaller size, whether we'd have space for a review of that book, alone, or not."
