The Collected Letters of Joseph Conrad
This is the fourth of the eight volumes of a widely acclaimed edition comprising all the surviving letters of Joseph Conrad.

Henry A. Wallace’s Criticism of America’s Atomic Monopoly, 1945-1948
Secretary of Commerce Henry A. Wallace was an earnest supporter of the Stimson Proposal, a disarmament proposal submitted to the Truman administration by then Secretary of War Henry L.
