Writing on "Columbia University" letterhead Nevins first discusses Bruce Catton's book "This Hallowed Ground: The Story of the Union Side of the Civil War." He writes: "Here we are. Bruce has written a fine book. It will delight everybody. It reads at times as if he had written in haste but I did not mention that. Some of the omissions are rather startling. But as a whole it is a superb performance." He then discusses Newman and Otto Eisenschiml's 1947 book "The American Iliad: The Epic Story of the Civil War as Narrated by Eyewitnesses and Contemporaries" an anthology that had just been rereleased by Grosset & Dunlap with a "Pictorial Chronicle" volume added by E.B. "Pete" Long. He writes "My congratulations on those two volumes of yours and Pete Long's. They are magnificent. You will have a very large sale. I agree that in time the second volume should be enlarged. It is fine as it stands but expansion would make it still finer. The whole set is a real public service."
