Dear Lulu:-

Macmillans have this to say about THE WARS:

"May I tell you how very much we admire your book. It seems to our readers, and to all of our people here who have looked at it, a thoroughly superb pieces of work, thrilling as narrative and profoundly impressive in the effect that it leaves. Crazy Horse and others stand out as great tragic figures. I thought you should know something of our own reaction to your really wonderful work".

Isn't that pretty good for a hard-boiled publishing house? The manuscript is now in charge of the art dep't., where plans are being made for the de luxe deluxe edition.

MOTION PICTURE FOR AUGUST, I'm told, had my picture and an announcement of the filming of the FRIENDS. I haven't seen it.

Lots of love for all of you.


Jno.
