The University of Pittsburgh Press has said to Ruggles literary executor Delia Moon they are not interested republishing The Lifeguard in the Snow, as they did publish it as part of Pitt Poetry Series in 1977.
Delia is requesting that they verify this; and if so, she may submit it to another publisher; or reprint it herself, in a limited edition format; and "then as part of a trilogy with two other manuscripts of his."
