{"value"=>"<p>This subseries is composed largely of correspondence, commentary and promotion files related to the publication and sales of <span class=\"title\">Searchlight on Peace Plans</span>. Co-authors Wynner and Georgia Lloyd worked closely with publisher E. P. Dutton's publicity department to gather reviews, short comments, and media coverage for the book, published in 1944. Promotional material includes distribution lists, fliers, and posters advertising the book's publication. Comments and reviews of <span class=\"title\">Searchlight</span> were positive, and the book garnered notice from Supreme Court Justice Owen Roberts, prominent political scientists, and high-profile women of the era such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Madame Chiang Kai-Shek. <span class=\"title\">Searchlight</span> was used as a textbook in college-level political science courses in the United States, and Dutton published a second edition of the book in 1949. Though Wynner received queries about producing new editions into the 1990s, she did not pursue the offers based on the amount of work required to update the text.</p> <p>Research notes, with incomplete portions of drafts, are filed in Series VI.A.: Early Works. Correspondence and draft versions of the book can also be found in the Georgia Lloyd papers, Series II.A.</p>"}
