Scope and content

First lines: "Thanks very much for your thoughtfulness in sending us the list of your friends to whom author's"... Contents index: «Exile Ends in Glory» / «The Seven Storey Mountain» - advantage of using Harcourt Brace, a secular publisher, rather than a Catholic publisher like Bruce to reach bigger market / likely release «What Are These Wounds?» in 1949 because of the other two books in 1948 / Fr. Raymond Flanagan's «The Man Who Got Even with God».
