2.0 out of 5 stars
questionable attention to detail in the preface, April 9, 2000
This review is from: Selected Letters of Rebecca West (Hardcover)
Rebecca lived through a lot of interesting things and knew interesting people, so if you're looking to read her letters, this is probably a pretty good collection of nicely typed out copies of them. I would disregard the preface since the editor, Bonnie Scott, has obviously not spent the time on attention to details and solid background information. If you want to read about Rebecca, I would recommend "Rebecca West: a saga of the century" by Carl Rollyson, who spent many hours at our home talking with my father and getting all his facts right over a long period of research.

since my last review, I have written to Bonnie Scott and she has contacted the publishers to correct errors. So it's getting better.
