This collection has now been published by Parlor Press, its first book. For more information, see the book's description. A Preliminary Index of this collection of important correspondence was published at the KB site in 1999. It lists 261 letters, cards, and other documents exchanged between Kenneth Burke and William H. Rueckert.

"Some of it turns up once in a while, but most of it's vanished. Maybe it's in the FBI files for all I know. . . ." (Burke in the All Area interview, recalling his work for Colonel Arthur Woods on The Dangerous Drugs project for The League of Nations.)

This project was launched by Todd W. Deam. The files have been scanned and transcribed. Running commentary by David Blakesley accompanies each page.

"In an exhibit of photographic murals at the Museum of Modern Art, there was an aerial photograph of two launches, proceeding side by side on a tranquil sea. . . ." (Burke in A Grammar of Motives, xvi, on the the image he used to imagine the workings of the pentad.)
