The ninety-three letters‿and the poems, over thirty in all, which she included in the letters or sent in place of them‿written by Emily Dickinson to her dear friends the Hollands, are intimate, spontaneous, and at the same time as characteristically poetic as everything Emily ever wrote or said. They span the major portion of Emily's adult life, from her twenties to her death. A detailed study of handwriting and paper has made possible a new historical approach to her life, her prose, and her poetry. This is the first of the books made possible by Harvard's acquisition of the Dickinson papers and the rights connected with them.

Cris Miller's volume of Emily Dickinson's complete poems is the only edition to distinguish in easy visual form the poems Dickinson took pains to copy carefully onto folded sheets in fair hand-arguably to preserve them for posterity-from the poems she retained in rougher form or did not retain.
