Lincoln ("Max") Schuster (1897 - 1970) co-founder, with Richard L. Simon (1899 - 1960), of Simon & Schuster publishing house in 1924.…Schuster's interest in the letters of men equaled his interest in men of letters; he began collecting them in 1915. 563 pages in 2 parts: I, Letters of Long Ago (334 BC to AD 1675); and II, Letters of Not So Long Ago (1747 to -1896.
