The editor explains the project’s informal, non-interview format and the aim to supplement gaps in existing correspondence and other well-documented sources.

his 1916 return as

Dartmouth Years  \n# Hoppy\n\non His Early Dartmouth Years  \nSome informal reminiscences of Ernest Martin HopkinsTape-recorded and edited by Edward Connery Latbem  \nHANOVER,NEW HAMPSHIRE·DARTMOUTH COLLEGE  \nOriginally published by theDartmoutb Alumni Magazinein commemoration of the  \nfiftieth anniversary of Mr.Hopkins'inauguration as President of Dartmouth:1916-1966:  \nthese reminiscences are now reprintedin slightly altered formin an edition limited to 1,150 copies.  \nFrontispiece:Mr.Lathem and President-Emeritus Hopkins duringa recording session in Dartmouth's Baker Memorial Library.  \nHE WAS DECIDEDLY hesitant when the suggestion was first made.Hehad long since rejected the idea of doing an autobiography himself;hemistrusted his ability now,in his eighties,to recall details with accuracy;and hewas apprehensive about engaging in any narrative that might somehow seemvain or too self-centered in character.Yet he could,on the other hand,clearlyrecognize that he did possess,in the form of recollections,a good deal of informa-tion not otherwise available—information that might be of interest,and even ofhistorical significance,in the period ahead.  \nSeveral months passed from the time the idea was originally proposed untilMr.Hopkins finally consented to try,at least,tape-recording certain of his rem-iniscences.Our initial sessions were held in February of 1958,and we had barelystarted before it proved that he was thoroughly enjoying this undertaking he hadcontemplated with such misgiving and doubt.During the six years that followed—into the summer of 1964,just a few weeks prior to his death—I had the privi-lege of sharing many hours with Dartmouth's President Emeritus,as he rangedin memory back and forth across the years.  \nFrom the outset we proceeded with complete informality.We had conver-  \nsations,not interviews.Moreover,it was understood that our primary objectivewas not to deal with matters already well documented in correspondence filesand other sources,but to concentrate,instead,on things that were inadequately,or not at all,recorded elsewhere—and particularly on Mr.Hopkins'own im-pressions and attitudes and estimates.  \nWhat was produced was,to be sure,largely offhand reminiscence and sus-ceptible to distortions as such,and it constituted neither an orderly nor an ex-haustive chronicle.Nonetheless,the result was a fascinating,highly valuableoral memoir,reaching back in time seventy or more years and dealing trench-antly,candidly,yet always good-humoredly with an astonishing variety of topics.  \nIn the text that follows I have drawn together,from different tapes,pas-sages that help tell a part of the story of Ernest Martin Hopkins'earliest Dart-mouth years—from his coming to Hanover as a freshman in 1897,through thedecade he served on the College staff following his graduation in 1901,to thetime of his return in 1916 as eleventh President in the \"Wheelock Succession.\"
