My dear Colonel Buchan

The very kind & most welcome gift
of your book came on Wednesday. I had a journey
to & from London with it, & I was delighted &
amazed with it. The really extraordinary fact
is that while one reads one lives again in the
great days. Later judgments may have crept in
to correct original impressions: but as that
has happened with us all, without our recognition
or remembrance of the change, one feels in
reading that the events recorded are
passing under one's eye again. The story
is perfectly fresh. And the English!!
