Autograph letter signed"Van Wyck Brooks".

Bridgewater, Conn, 3 august 1957. 8vo. 1 page, on printed stationery. To Wesley Hartley, an educator and teacher. Folded, accompanied by a copy of Brook's obituary.
¶ The literary critic and writer answering Hartley's question regarding of the importance of education on his writing career.While he didn't think that school and college had any direct connection with his writing he does write that "they are important in keeping a person in touch with books and sheltered from the necessity of earning a living. In other words, the comparative [ ] that goes with being in school and college, together with the necessity of study, affords a good medium for the development of talent"
