Nicoll's review of his "The gospel for an age of doubt"; scholarly writing projects he directed, especially "Gateway series"; his views on world peace and on education, particularly entrance exams in English; royalties; and his schooldays, son's death, religious views, and personal life. There are also two photographs of Van Dyke. Correspondents include the corresponding editor of "The youth's companion," Richard Watson Gilder, Edward Leeds Gulick, Robert Underwood Johnson, J.T. Pike, F.L. Pleadwell, and Paul van Dyke.
