[PW] Voorhies/Mutual Book Co., Boston link to James Joyce?

[Hilary Caws-Elwitt]

Hello wombats,

A friend/academic was given a copy of Frank Corey Voorhies' "Love Letters of an 
Irishwoman" and is trying to establish any link at all, even a tenuous one, 
between the book and Joyce. For example, it was published in 1901 by Mutual Book 
Company of Boston, and Cornhill Publishing, also of Boston, published the 
American version of _Chamber Music_ in 1918. Could there have been an overlap in 
editors? Is there any source of information about the history of the Mutual Book 
Company or of publishing in Boston that might establish a connection? Any chance 
of figuring out if the book was distributed abroad? We don't have any resources 
to speak of here and Internet searching is not bringing any joy.

Thanks!
