  • "The collection consists chiefly of correspondence with publishers, lecture organizer Harold R. Peat, inc., and academics."
  • "Of interest in the correspondence are a 1952 letter resigning from the American Civil Liberties Union and three letters re potential libel over the character "Elsa" in "Great Days.""
  • "Correspondence, 1953-1955, with the Peat agency discusses itineraries, monetary arrangements, criticism, advice, lecture format and stress. Some contracts, itinaries and instruction sheets are included."
  • "Correspondence with agents and publishers traces the publication history of his books. Very brief, routine letters from academics generally request permission to reprint selections in anthologies and college texts."
  • "The collection also contains a Columbia University Law School Class Book, 1896, with a biographical note and photograph of his half brother James Madison; royalty statements; clippings; obituaries; a memoranda notebook; miscellaneous printed material and two articles by Dos Passos "The Truth About Visual Training," "Two Eighteenth-Century Careers"and "Thomas Jefferson Looks At the Modern World.""
