This section presents a letter by John P. McKenna to Times Literary Supplement regarding the book Sword of Honour, by Evelyn Waugh. A reviewer's perceptive account of Waugh's minor but significant revisions in the trilogy about Guy Crouchback, entitled Sword of Honour, does not contain any explicit suggestions about the motives or events responsible for the changes. Surely, however, readers aware of Waugh's hostility to the enactments of Vatican II can understand the author's subtle recasting of his work. Although it is true that many minor changes taken collectively affect the tone of the entire work, the single major change the reviewer notes is the key to the radical redirection Waugh's textual recensions produce.
