The article discusses books and authors. In "Shelley's Lost Letters to Harriet," editor Leslie Hotson has added another triumph to that list of triumphs which promises to grow so long as to make him the leading literary detective of the day. He has discovered nine of the letters written to litterateur Harriet Westbrooke after he had left her for English writer and feminist Mary Godwin. One was already known, but it was insufficient. Others had been searched for and perhaps in- numerable unknown men during the century which followed the miserable confusion attending the affair.
