Dear Dr. Lambert:

I was delighted to receive your letter acknowledging receipt of my book.

Indeed I do remember the times I have appeared with you on television. I have several tapes of these events and I treasure them greatly. They will be turned over to my collection in Western Manuscripts.

Have you seen the paperback edition of BLACK ELK SPEAKS? It was published forty years ago and has only recently exploded into popularity.

I am busy working on the adult section of my "autobiography" which will be called "Let Me Live Out My Years."

With all kind thoughts for yourself and Mrs. Lambert, your old friend
