Books That Talk to the Blind
Biographer and editor whose roots go back to Bristol, Rhode Island, MARK ANTONY DEWOLFE HOWE is the oldest and dearest of Atlantic contributors, having made his first appearance in our columns sixty-three years ago last spring. Mr. Howe published his autobiography, A Venture in Remembrance, at the age of seventy-seven. Then as the light began to fail he was more and more confined to his apartment on Louisburg Square; here he has continued to write his poems and his essays, and, when blindness made reading impossible, he has enjoyed the companionship of Talking Books.
