> Subject: [VA-HIST] Richard Bland's library

> 

> In his massive Intellectual Life in the Colonial South (p. 544) Richard Beale Davis wrote that a Prof. Clyde S. Henson of Michigan State University was studying Bland's library and had "gathered all he could about the books in the Colonel's library" -- and that Henson had sent Davis some 80 pages of photocopies of information about these titles (ibid., 1011 n 120).

> 

> Does anyone know where Henson's findings might be consulted?

> Thank you and a joyous holiday season to all.
