Letters of Roy Bedichek William a Owens

Publisher Marketing: Although Roy Bedichek published less than his more famous friends J. Frank Dobie and Walter Prescott Webb, he wrote voluminously and, many say, with more distinction than the others. This volume presents a collection of Bedichek letters that give us an insight into his literary and creative development - from his earliest years onwards.
