Yesterday one mail brought me two copies of the Review! Your article is bully; and I am very grateful indeed for it. You say enough to arouse curiosity and yet not enough to satisfy it. Such an article sends the reader to the books of the author discussed.
As a propagandist I must thank you especially for coining the proper adjective, "Neihardtian". That will help.
I have now lost one month, but am getting at "The Song of the Indian Wars" this week, and expect
I hear there is strong action in Nebraska to have me made laureate by action of the Legislature & proclamation of the Governor. This would help the work a great deal, and the rest is piffle, pure piffle.
I'm having a copy of the "Wayfaring" sent to you through the Review. I'm wondering if you might find time to review it. My "Two Mothers" is already in galley proofs.
The Neihardt Club is organizing. I hope you will help with advice, or in any way. Dr. House was delighted with your article.
A snatchy letter, surely. But man, I'm just coming out of chaos. Moving is a frightful job.
