Just a thought. LesMis you are so correct, there is not one volume, to my knowledge, dedicated to the North American Indian I agree that there is no volume dedicated to the American Indian, and that this is an oversight that is long overdue for correction. Although Neihardt and Dee Brown are both worthy of inclusion, both are white.
In the first post of this thread, I mentioned 4 American Indian authors whose works are eminently worthy of inclusion -- N. There are many more, including a great deal of fine poetry and short-story writing. I have been collecting Native American writing for many years, and I can attest thjat it is a very rich and extensive literature. In addition, there are more works by white authors in the vein of Dee Brown's 'Wounded Knee.

If I were writing this post at some time other than after midnight, I might have taken the time to expand on the richness of Native American literature. Much of the good stuff is in copyright, and an anthology would need to be representative of many traditions. The focus, of course, would need to be on material that actually originated with American Indians.
Regardless, whatever we do will cost a whole lot of money, both because of rights and because of texts that require better translations. Finally, I can't imagine that a single-author volume by an American Indian author wouldn't happen in the next few years--assuming we could secure the rights. How is that I live almost 50 years and have never heard of House Made of Dawn which I will purchase via Amazon as soon as I finish this sentence.
I've also not heard of Frances Denmore and will seek to learn more. Man, the information you learn in this forum outranks anything you could learn in a Ph. D program. Texaco, I predict you will love House Made of Dawn. I first read it nearly 40 years ago, and it still has an indelible impression on me -- I'm inclined to reread it now.
It was the first novel by a Native American to win the Pulitzer Prize. Another absolutely astonishing and deeply engrossing novel is Fools Crow by James Welch.

Craig Lesley's Winterkill is also well worth the time. I'm a little embarassed to admit buying the Lovecraft volume, but I had a nice enough time going through a story or two when the winter wind was howling and I wanted something a little different.
Since he was a prolific letter writer and it looks like the books are hard to come by, the LOA should do a Lovecraft letters volume. I have a feeling it would do well. Don't be embarrassed about Lovecraft, it is a great volume. I still haven't finished it, about halfway. I find that to best enjoy Lovecraft, I have to fit stories in between my other volumes I had most, if not all, of Lovecraft's stories in lurid paperback editions, the way God intended them.
Still, I went for the LOA edition. The mysterious attraction of an acid-free clothbound volume with sewn-in bookmark To echo some of the people that already posted What's so embarrassing about Lovecraft? The pulpy elements to Lovecraft make me uncomfortable. But, there are interesting and nicely drawn out details that are quite impressive. For instance, Innsmouth, the town itself is nicely built up and the panic of fleeing that bedroom, through an adjoining room no less, is quite tactile. The frogmen I did also appreciate the description of the ocean, the tide and liminal qualities when the main character was talking to the alcoholic who supplies the town's back story.
But please don't take offense to what I may or may not find embarrassing. What I've read of his letters, including the doodles, I think are fascinating and really display his intelligence as a writer. It would be an honest way to quiet the critics of LOA's recent selections. Again, these letters seem hard to find in print. For a lot of folks myself included "pulpy" is a good adjective. I haven't read Lovecraft myself, but from what I understand he has both an unfettered imagination and an unfettered vocabulary.
When he's brilliant, he's brilliant, and when he's awful, he's uniquely and brilliantly awful.

Am I right? If so, I don't know why I haven't read him yet. Anyway, never be embarrassed by your taste.
There's plenty of "low-brow" work out there that is amazingly good and will stand the test of time. There shouldn't be any such thing as a guilty pleasure. I'm probably going to steal it sometime. There's also decent volume of Robert E. Howard's Cthulhu stories out there somewhere. Good stuff.

But, don't fear the guilt. Guilt is what makes us human, and otherwise complex creatures. In it's own way Lovecraft's horror is an expressive form of guilt. Think of all the similarities to his work and Shakespeare's Macbeth. It seems to me that one of the special and perhaps unusual characteristics of the LOA is its willingness to take on long term projects. Complete journals as opposed to selections paint a picture of the life of the writer in the small details.
Maybe I am just nosey, but it is often the commonplace, the quotidian and the trivial which is most engaging. I am sure the U. That aside, I'm much in favor of your main point as far publishing letters and diaries. Maybe we should hope for more journalistic volumes. Or additional volumes devoted to life in particular cities. Unfortunately it's all very dependent on literacy rates and having enough time each day to write.
Usually the wealthy were the only ones who were able to read and write, as well as having that time each day to record their thoughts, actions, etc. Hector St. John De Crevecoeur? The "March of America series" is an incredible collection, if you have access to a library that has them, they make excellent browsing. But again, most of these are accounts or recollections, not a Pepys style swath of large and small. From what I can gather, Ben Goodkind tried to start a liberal arts news paper in San Francisco and didn't have much success; then did some rail travelling and produced two books of slightly fictionalized account of these travels.
Kind of reminds me of Henry Miller or Jack Keroac. I don't think it would be a bad idea to bundle in with a few other American travel narratives.
