Alistair Cooke's complete letters from America are going online.
According to David Hughes
All 2,869 of Cooke's scripts - an estimated seven million words - are to be in-putted in the coming months by the University of East Anglia. This treasure trove of some of the finest journalism of the 20th century will give everyone access to a fabulous running history of the United States from1946 to 2004. In that 58 year stint, Cooke did not miss a deadline. He finally stopped broadcasting when he was 95 and died a few weeks later.
