Scope and content
The University Press, Cambridge. - His brother [George], the Master of Trinity, has advised him to write directly to Kingsford about his translation of Lucretius, published by the Press eleven years ago. When he wrote to the Press recently to ask for a copy, he was told it was only available in 'unbound sheets'; wonders if a few copies could be bound up occasionally; thinks it was selling well not long ago.
