Scope and Content NoteThe papers of Owen Wister (1860-1938), American novelist best known for his Western stories, span the years 1829through 1966 with the bulk concentrated in the period 1890-1930. The collection is organized in eight series: Journals;Family Correspondence; General Correspondence; Scrapbooks; Speech, Article, and Book File; Biographical File; PrintedMatter; and Addenda.
The Family Correspondence series includes numerous handwritten letters of Owen Wister and of such relatives as hisgrandmother Fanny Kemble Butler, his mother, Sarah Butler Wister, and his cousins, Silas Weir Mitchell and Langdon E.Mitchell. Wister's letters to his mother, 1870-1907, and to his wife, Mary Channing Wister, 1898-1913, contain detaileddescriptions of his activities and thoughts during those years. The letters of Wister's grandmother, the celebrated Britishactress, Fanny Kemble, are numerous and extend from 1829 to 1891. His mother, the anonymous author of articlespublished by The Atlantic Monthly, was a close friend of Henry James, and the family papers contain several of James'sletters to her.
The large General Correspondence series consists mainly of letters received by Wister. Copies of his replies are infrequent.There is a great deal of correspondence from Wister's publishers, particularly the Macmillan Company.
