The letters of Albert Jay Nock, scholar, aristocrat, individualist, editor and writer, which were written to a Mr. and Mrs. Evans, and her sister- Miss Winsor, his patrons, over a period of twenty years. From the correspondence, sometimes personal, sometimes incidental, one can derive the progression of his articles, essays and books; a commentary on the passing political scene; his reactions to other books, music; his opinions. One questions however whether more than a very few today still remember Nock with sufficient interest to give this a reading, rather than testimonial, value.
