Condición: Very good. - Typed letter filling one side of an approximately 11-inch high by 8-12 inch wide sheet of Charles Scribner's Sons letterhead. Signed "Burroughs Mitchell". The top left corner is creased & there is some very light staining to the blank space below the letter. Folded 5 times for mailing. Very good. Mitchell writes a respectful and considerate letter to historical fiction author John Hyde Preston, rejecting his novel "The Stations of Power": "This letter will bring you a very grave disappointment. It is a hard letter for me to write.Four editors besides myself had familiarized themselves with your novel.You know that I was impressed by 'The Stations of Power". I should try to tell you, I think, in what way my colleagues found it less impressive. For them, by and large, the characters were stated, written about, rather than realized. The characters did not become immediate and vivid and so the narrative was not absorbing." Burroughs Mitchell [d. 1979] began his career as as a pulp magazine editor. After serving in the navy in World War II, he decided he wanted to work in a more serious literary field. Since Charles Scribner's had published a book by his father, edited by the legendary Max Perkins, Mitchell went to see Perkins who hired him in 1946. He remained at Scribner's until his retirement in 1977, working with such authors as James Jones, C. P. Snow, Pamela Hansford Johnson and Robert Creeley. This excellent letter illustrates Mitchell's sustaining faith in the writers he worked with and his vision of the editor's role: "Editorial work does require imagination--the imagination to see the contours of a book with something close to the author's vision. The capacity to do that makes the editor a valuable ally for any writer.".

Folding handcolored map, 15 1/2 x 13 1/2 inches. Bound into original 16mo. embossed burgundy leather binding, front board gilt. Boards rubbed, worn at corners and spine ends. Relevant newspaper clippings affixed to front and rear endpapers. Some soiling and staining to the map, most evident on the recto. Previous owner's pencil notes on recto of map. A good plus copy. A rare Iowa pocket map, based on the map that appeared in Samuel Mitchell's NEW UNIVERSAL ATLAS of 1846, issued to satisfy the public's demand for maps of Iowa as it moved from a territory to statehood at the end of the year. Thirty-one counties are shown on the map, colored in shades of pink, green, and yellow, and are limited to the southeastern portion of the territory; twenty-seven of these counties had been surveyed and have their towns and courthouses marked - the remaining four counties have no marked towns and have either a single road marked or show no roads at all. The remainder of the map includes territories divided between Native American tribes including (from north to south): the Sioux; the Sauks and Foxes; the Iowa (aka Ioway) and the Pottawattamies (aka Potawatomi). There is also a section of "Neutral Ground," established by the 1830 Treaty of Prairie du Chien to keep the various tribes from warring with each other. This map is quite unusual as it was issued in 1846 but shows the plan of the state of Iowa as proposed in 1844 by Governor Lucas, a member of the Iowa Constitutional Convention (and the first governor of Iowa Territory). These proposed state boundaries became known at the time as the Lucas Boundaries, and encompassed part of what is now southern Minnesota. These boundaries proved to be a serious sticking point for the Free State and Slave State factions in Congress at the time, who refused to ratify Iowa's entrance into the Union until the lines were redrawn. The boundaries were redrawn in 1845, at which time the Congress and President Tyler ratified Iowa's statehood. The people of Iowa rejected the new proposed boundaries, and Iowa remained a territory until the map was redrawn yet again, and statehood was granted on December 28th, 1846. Interestingly, as this map was published in the months just before statehood was granted, Mitchell labels the map neither as the Iowa Territory nor as the State of Iowa, but just "Iowa," which allowed his published map to be as correct as possible regardless of the legal status of the region at the time. Mitchell's choice of the map showing the proposed Lucas Boundaries was very likely dictated by the fact that the Lucas Boundary map was the first proposed map for the territory accepted by the people of Iowa and due to the fact that it would take H. N. Burroughs time to engrave the map - switching the map to whatever proposed boundaries were in consideration at any particular point prior to publication would have not have allowed Mitchell to keep to his publication schedule. This map is quite rare in the market, and institutionally. Rare Book Hub has only two listings, a copy offered by Goodspeed's in 1946, and the Streeter copy, which was that same Goodspeed's copy, and which sold for $125 at the Streeter sale. An important and exceptionally scarce map of early Iowa created during its two-year struggle for statehood, whose boundary lines were largely influenced by partisan slavery politics of the time. OCLC locates copies at Grinnell College, Knox College, and the University of Illinois. This is the first copy we have handled. STREETER SALE 1888. KARROW 8:0657. RUMSEY 0537.000.
