There are many letters written during World War II that discuss life in America as well as abroad, especially Iwo Jima.

The manuscripts include a number of Smith's notebooks as well as drafts of essays and monographs. The ephemera includes appearances of Smith's columns, photographs of Smith's work and family, and printed materials related to Smith's work and family life.
