AM &TM "The Saddes Story" [The Good Soldier], [1914-1915?]

Item — Box: 21, Folder: 2

Scope and Contents

An apparently complete manuscript of what was to become the novl "The Good Soldier", both typewritten and in various handwritings and divided into three sections Parts I-II, Part III, and Part IV) by pieces of green cord. Thomas C. Mosher ascribes the identities of the various transcribers as follows: "Most of Part I (manuscript pages 2-44 and 47-82) was written by Bridit Patmore; much of Part II (pages 141-196, 106-218, and 225-253) appears to have been written by the American Imagist poet H. D. (Hilda Doolittle); the last two chapters, less the first two typed pages (pages 342-376) look to be in the hand of H.D.'s husband, the English Imagist poet Richard Aldington.... The holograph portions of the manuscript surely represent first drafts; the typed portions may not be." Harvey Ci(91a)
