As Bobby so aptly described above, AMTF is no longer in print - you might try Abebooks.com, they may have a set at a reasonable price. Most of the used vendors at Amazon are expensive with out of print titles (and unreliable on their condition descriptions), but you might try looking there too. <br /><br />As for the Collected Letters of REH, the REH Foundation sells the first two volumes of that set & The Index & Addenda here - (http://www.rehfoundation.org/category/merchandise/). However, the first volume is sold out. It would not surprise me - due to the growth of popular demand for these letters if they re-issue those in the future sometime - perhaps in paperback.<br /><br />Glad you enjoy the site.<br /><br />Cheers!<br /><br />ToddTodd B.

HOWARD (3 vols. + Index and Addenda) are both excellent collections. If you're interested specifically in the Howard/Lovecraft correspondence, I'd go with AMTF - while the Collected Letters has all of REH's side of the correspondence, Lovecraft's portion is not fully published anywhere else, not even in the SELECTED LETTERS OF H. P. LOVECRAFT (5 vols. + Index).<br /><br />However, be aware that AMTF is out of print with the price increasing, and the Collected Letters are nearly out of print with a full set being scarce and expensive.greyirishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613850313903205301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7281203981310562736.post-38944075052493858842015-09-01T19:56:14.626-05:002015-09-01T19:56:14.626-05:00Just now discovered your wonderful site.

Lovecraft's letters circa 1932-1934, which include a number sent to Howard. I've wondered what Howard's contribution to the the dialogue had been, given Lovecraft's frequently lengthy and detailed response.<br /><br />Do you recommend a vendor for "A Means to Freedom" or the three volume "Collected Letters of Robert E. Howard"?<br /><br />Thanks.Sean Eatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15812559087429745794noreply@blogger.com
