Series-level Scope and Content Note

From the Series:

This short series includes correspondence from Kathleen Harriman, the Roosevelts, and Robert Sherwood. The series may very well be considered part two of the preceding series since much of the correspondence to HLH is personal. However, general information is also included on individuals such as FDR and it was deemed more practical to create a separate series in the interest of accessibility. (Box 4, Folders 14-18)
