(Misdated 1927.)

Yale University Library, New Haven, Connecticut
January 3, 1927 {1}

Ronald B. McKerrow, Esq.
Enderley, Gt. Missenden, Bucks, England

Dear Mr. McKerrow:

I send under separate cover a copy of the Publishers’ Weekly for December 17, containing on page 2156 a review of your Introduction to Bibliography.

The review is, as you will see, largely descriptive and only occasionally critical. The criticism takes the form of praise, however, in every instance. I hope that it will sell the book in this country.

Yours very sincerely,
Andrew Keogh
