About MeCorrespondence from James McBey to G.P. Putnam's Sons Ltd., copy for reference. Thanks for letter dated 29 January 1932 (see ABDAG009504.16), and finds comfort in their words following previously being ashamed of his article. He worries he might be unable to produce a "sustained output of words" necessary for a book. He promises to communicate with them if he is able to do such a thing. Letter is dated 5 February 1932.
