Pressestimmen

"It is a truly beautiful book." -The Bookseller (UK)."..a stupendous collection of memorable missives, often by famous people - and with facsimiles, each page is a marvel..."Letters of Note" is quite literally the most enjoyable volume it is possible to imagine." -The Spectator (UK)"Every single epistle in "Letters of Note" is soul-stretching beyond measure."-Brain PickingsStarred Review " A beautiful collection that should appeal to everyone. Start reading it and you're lost. " - Library JournalStarred Review " Based on the blog of the same name, this collection of letters is so handsome that it looks like a coffee-table book, but it's more than that. In it, Queen Elizabeth II sends a note to President Dwight Eisenhower reflecting on Mamie and Ike's visit to Balmoral Castle: she appends her recipe for scones. The chairman of the Whitehall Vigilance Committee receives a package with a note from Jack the Ripper accompanied by half a human kidney, pickled in wine: "I fried and ate it was very nise." Gandhi appeals to Hitler as the only one who can avert the impending war. Bank robber Clyde Barrow tells Henry Ford he only drives Fords. Francis Crick alerts his son about DNA. A wife writes to her samurai husband on the eve of battle (he died in the fighting, she committed suicide) and an ex-slave addresses his former master. This treasure trove of fascinating material includes more than 125 letters from both the famous and the unknown dating as far back as 1340 BCE, many reproduced in facsimile.A beautiful collection that should appeal to everyone. Start reading it and you're lost. " - Library Journal"."..an anthology of Shaun Usher's wonderful blog of the same name. It's well worth picking up." " Quartz"Holiday Gift Guide Pick"Shaun Usher's glorious selection of letters from writers, royalty, rock stars and ordinary citizens, makes you yearn to find a witty handwritten or typed missive in your mailbox. Drawn from the blog of the same name, this lovely volume combines photographs, transcriptions and commentary. "Newsday"While a good portion of history happened out in the open, allowing it to be preserved in the history books for everyone to read for generations, still more happened in the private correspondence of people who mattered. In Letters of Note: An Eclectic Collection of Correspondence Deserving of a Wider Audience (brought to you by the creator of the blog by the same name) you'll read letters spanning across centuries, from influential political leaders, authors, actors, murderers, and more. Each one lends a unique insight into the major events of the time, whether they're wars, cultural shifts, key moments, or important discoveries. This epistolary compilation contains over 300 letters, detailing the personal thoughts of everyone from Jack the Ripper to Kurt Vonnegut." -Uncrate"This new book beautifully highlights fascinating letters ...The hardcover demands prime space on the coffee table." USA Today's Pop Candy"Someone should write a love letter to a new book called Letters of Note. It's a splendid collection of all kinds of correspondence through the ages: Elvis Presley fans writing to the president, children making suggestions to famous cartoonists, a scientist's poignant love letter to his late wife." - A Way With Words

Great Selection. Nicely presented. A Must Have. The letters allow you to travel back in time and see the World through the eyes of some remarkable personalities.

I must begin by saying that the review claiming this is a book of difficult to read images only is incorrect. All letters come with a "transcript," with the letter images included to add interest. Please see the photo I've attached of a favorite of mine from the book, as an example of how the book proceeds. If you have any interest, I'd say, please get thisboom. It is a larger format, somewhat like a coffee table book; but the collected letters inside are funny, moving, intimate, inspiring, fascinating. Unlike so many "pretty" books that are done in about 20 minutes, this one has already provided so much enjoyment - reading, rereading, and sharing with my best friend and my family. The person who compiled the letters also provides background that further brings these letters to life. Can hardly wait to receive book 2!

I bought both Letters and Lists of Note as a Christmas present for my mother-in-law, and when they arrived I couldn't help myself and began to read. I've been reading eBooks on the main for a while, and everything about these books was enthralling - the library-book smell, the feel of the heavy stock pages, and the gorgeous dust jackets. And the content, so thoughtfully curated... once I started reading, I couldn't stop. Unable to part with them, I have ordered another copy of each to wrap up and give away, and am keeping these copies for myself. There is something for everyone here, so my recommendation is to do what I did - buy a copy for yourself, and one for someone you love.

Letters of Note by Shaun UsherNOVEMBER 7, 2017 ~ LEAVE A COMMENT ~ EDITLetters of Note: An Eclectic Collection of Correspondence Deserving of a Wider AudienceLetters of Note: An Eclectic Collection of Correspondence Deserving of a Wider Audience by Shaun UsherMy rating: 5 of 5 starsIt was from “A Way with Words” a public radio show about the English language, including the origins of words, the usages, and good books that I came to know this lovely book. It’s a stupendous compendium of letters from the famous and the ordinary from the ancient to the modern with beautiful photo copies of the letters reproduced in the book. The letters span the whole range of human emotions from kindness, passion, love, joy to heartbreak, anger, disappointment, and longing as the contents of the letters reveal the writer’s’ innermost thoughts, feelings, and emotions through the vehicles of pen and paper.Reading each of the letters made me feel deeply touched by the universality of humanity and reflective of the human nature manifested in writing without prejudice on the grounds of appearances and social standings, which influence our perceptions of individuals. Readers can find lots of very interesting letters in this book. Of all the letters in the book, the following three letters resonate in my mind: (1) E. B. White’s letter to his gentleman acquaintance regarding the importance of having hope for humanity; (2) Anaïs Nin’s rebuking letter to a faceless collector of her co-authored “Erotica” for his demand of more prevalent racy contents; and (3) a nameless German’s woman’s letter to her husband asking him to take her back home from a dreadful mental hospital she was in. It was so heartbreaking to read her brief letter to her husband that I could feel her pain, fear, and sadness alone in the grim place… I commiserated with her….Mr. Usher in his foreword states that if the readers are inspired to put pen to paper by reading the letters in the book, his intention of compiling the book will be fulfilled and greatly appreciated. That’s a very noble intention and sublime aspiration in this digital age. This book is a lovely work of art which the readers will never tire of.

Oh, no! Oh, no! I just finished reading Letters of Note, and now I don't know what to do with my life. I have been so immersed the last few days in this extraordinary book that I actually feel quite lost now. The letters Shaun Usher has compiled range from funny to heartbreaking, from silly to wise, from confounding to enlightening. There could have been a thousand letters here and I still would not have tired of reading. I cannot wait for his next compilation to come out. In the meantime, I will peruse his website, Letters of Note, to see if I can find more wonderful letters from personalities famous and obscure. Thank you, Mr. Usher, for giving us such an amazing experience!

Shaun Usher did not select a single letter for this compilation that was not worth my time to read. Even when the letter seemed as if it would be too long (as with Lucy Thurston to her daughter), the time spent reading it was worth every second and more. (Stoics Marcus Aurelius and Seneca had nothing on her). Here are the joys, sufferings, accomplishments, setbacks — and every other human condition and emotion — captured in a single collection. Each one is like receiving a letter of one's own, with that same precious quality. Some are funny, others tragic, but not a page was wasted. Usher also wrote brief but pithy, well-written introductions to the writers and circumstances of each letter.
