Default Staughton Lynd Unpublished Manuscript?

I have here what seems to be an unpublished typed manuscript of a book
by activist lawyer/author Staughton Lynd. I can't find any mention of
the title on ABE, Bookfinder, Google, etc. The title is "Diary of a
Delegate to the Word," dated March 1991. Along with the manuscript is
a typed letter to peace/civil rights activist David Dellinger, asking
for comments and criticism. In the letter he mentions that he had
asked Alice Walker to write a Preface. On ABE, the closest I come to
as far as subject and published time is "Solidarity Unionism:
Rebuilding Labor Movement from Below" I wonder if the manuscript was
retitled to Solidarity...? Or was this ever published?

Bob, this seems to be the place to look:

http://speccoll.library.kent.edu/labor/SLWriting.html

Maybe your manuscript will end up there as well.

Wiiliam,
I saw that site, among others, when I was searching for info. I've
done some more looking, still no luck. I guess I'll contact Kent State
about this.
Thanks for your efforts,
Bob Streeter
