Scope and content
Typed transcripts, by Jeff Kwintner, of one hundred and ninety-six letters, dated 1938-1942, from John Cowper Powys to Huw Menai. The transcripts mostly correspond to the photocopied letters in AAB2/1/1 and the beginning of AAB2/1/2. However letters Nos 1-11 (dated 8 December 1938-24 February 1939) and No 196 (17 June 1942), have photocopies of the originals appended, none of which are to be found in AAB2/1/1-2. Additionally Nos 37, 61, 68, 128, 158, 170 and 173 are transcripts of letters not in AAB2/1/1-2, while seven of the letters present there are not transcribed (see AAB2/1/1, ff. 145-6, 153-4, 160-1, 268-71, 274-9, 436-9, and AAB2/1/2, ff. 71-80).
