Notes:

"Quotes from conversations with Wolfe, facsimiles Wolfe's previously unpublished comments on a student paper, prints a previously unpublished letter to Russell Kraus dated 7 February."--Cf. Johnston.

"The copies bearing the New York University Press Geoffrey Cumberlege/Oxford University Press imprint and those bearing the New York University Press imprint only are separate printings ... 'Thomas Wolfe at Washington Square' bears the NYUP/OUP imprint and is the same size as the NYUP/OUP printing of 'The Correspondence of Thomas Wolfe and Homer Andrew Watt.' The NYUP/OUP printing was included in the only boxed set located. It is possible that the NYUP/OUP printing of 'The Correspondence of Thomas Wolfe and Homer Andrew Watt' was sold in the set and separately."--Cf. Johnston.
