A Memory of R. E. Howard

E. Hoffmann Price

First published 1946
Type Essay

This is a section, originally titled "Robert Ervin Howard," taken from the essay "The Book of the Dead, Chapter 2: Robert Ervin Howard" by E. Hoffmann Price in The Ghost #3 edited and published by W. Paul Cook, May 1945.
The content of the original essay was heavily redacted by August Derleth, and two paragraphs were added at the end. These two paragraphs also end the essay "Robert Erwin Howard" by E. Hoffmann Price.
This essay begins "Eighteen years ago, I picked up a copy of Weird Tales . . .," though originally it was "Fifteen years ago . . ."
