Dear David,

At this time there are no plans by the ADS to publish THE DROUGHTS OF MARCH.  We are undergoing a reorganization of our publishing priorities and expect to continue issuing books by August Derleth at appropriate times.

Sincerely,

James P. Roberts
Secretary/Archivist
August Derleth Society

Subject: Unpublished Derleth Sac Prairie Saga novels...

Peter Ruber said that August aroused his interest in some still unpublished contemporary "Sac Prairie" novels he'd written during the 50s which he (Derleth) would like to see published in the near future.   The title of one of these was THE DROUGHT OF MARCH, and Ruber indicated that though initially "lost", it had come to light in June of '96, was indeed a complete novel and would see publication in the upcoming years.  George Vanderburgh has said recently that he has prepared all of these previously unpublished manuscripts (turned over to he and Ruber by April Derleth in '96) and that they would be appearing, sponsored by the ADS.  Is this particular title anywhere on the horizon 15 years later?
Thanks,
Dave Richard
