quote:Welcome to the home of the Robert A. and Virginia Heinlein Archives.
The Heinlein Archives is a cooperative project between The Heinlein Prize Trust and the UC Santa Cruz Archives.
The Heinlein Archives presents digital copies of the entire collections of Robert A. and Virginia Heinlein in downloadable form for research and academic purposes. Heinlein’s OPUS manuscripts is the first complete collection presented. These manuscript files include Heinlein’s files of all his published works with his notes, research, early drafts and edits of manuscripts, to the final published form. These files provide both a look at Heinlein’s creative process and add insights into his intent and the meaning in his stories.

One thing I love about DVDs are good commentary tracks that discuss the creative process.
This will just be plain awesome.

As a big fan of Heinlein's young adult books, this is just awesome. It's regrettable he really lost it after his stroke. There were a few pearls, but most of it was just drivel.
