The Louis Auchincloss collection contains writings and a 2011 Addition. Writings consist of corrected drafts and proofs for works reflecting the diversity of Auchincloss's literary output from the mid 1960s to 1980s. Works include the following: the novels The Embezzlers (1966), A World of Profit (1968), The Country Cousin (1978), The Cat and the King (1981), and Watchfires (1982); a short story collection, Tales of Manhattan (1987); and a collection of critical essays on women writers, Pioneers and Caretakers (1965). The 2011 Addition contains material dating chiefly from the mid 1980s to 2001, including drafts of additional novels and story collections, such as The Book Class (1984), The Atonement and Other Stories (1997), and Her Infinite Variety (2000), and lecture notes.
