Letter from Thomas Robins to Gutzon Borglum

Thomas Robins was delighted with Gutzon Borglum’s dissatisfaction over Calvin Coolidge’s inscription for the Mount Rushmore National Memorial. He suggests that Borglum meet with Andrew Fleming West, who has mastered “monumental English.” Robins also praises Borglum’s statue of John Campbell Greenway, which Robins feels was “worthy of the subject.”
