George Allen & Unwin Ltd, Ruskin House, Publishers & Exporters, 40 Museum Street, London W. C. - Asks if Trevelyan has considered offering his last two books to an American publisher; if not, suggests sending copies to the Macmillan Company in New York with the hope that they might import a small quantity. They would pay only about a third of the published price, but this would 'ensure some distribution in the States' and review copies going to the press. Currently have only sixty copies of "Translations from Latin Poetry"; asks if there are any more at the binders [A. A. Tanner & Son]. There are four hundred and eighty copies of the second impression of "Windfalls".
