Two and three pages respectively. 1 vols. 8vo. Hartley had written Wilson enquiring as to the importance of his formal education to his creative writing. Wilson writes "I do not really think that my education played any large part in my writing later in my life" ["I never wrote a word until I was 36 and then only began as a hobby"(11 Aug.)] ".but it occurs to me that the English system of education at a large private school.is an aid to wide reading of literature and this obviously plays a part when one later is inspired to write." Of his "undisciplined self teachings" he notes "it has not helped as a critic, but it may have done as a creative writer" "I never wrote a word until I was 36". To Wesley Hartley, a long-time educator and teacher, formerly of the American Council on Education. Folded, else fine with the original envelopes Two and three pages respectively. 1 vols. 8vo.
