My dear John,

I read your book.

If I may be allowed to say so , I think it is your best job. I was thrilled by the story.

I would send a copy to Rothermere if I were not on good terms with his secretaries.

You have given me a delightful night, though you robbed me of my sleep .

Yours ever, [sig'd] (Beaverbrook)

Colonel John Buchan, M.P., 35 , Paternoster Row , E.C.4
