This collection encompasses Eddings’ entire writing career, containing almost all the correspondence, holograph manuscripts, typescript versions, revisions, and page proofs for each of his 27 published volumes. Versions of more than a dozen unpublished works are also included along with short stories and plays that were rejected for publication. Eddings’ education, army service, and teaching career are all documented. The Papers also contain many photographs and some personal correspondence, which joins the massive collection of fan mail received.
