BR TO W.W. NORTON & COMPANY, INC. / WARDER NORTON, 17 APR. 1936

Dear Warder

I enclose the Table of Contents and 2 introductory chapters of the book about my parents. The title-page is not yet settled; I send it you in its present form.

I can send you the complete typescript in a few days,* but it will probably contain more than will be printed, as the Nonesuch Press are likely to suggest many omissions. At present it is about 400,000 words. I think the most interesting part is Chapter XI, B, giving the campaign of calumny about birth-control.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.

*Please cable if you would like to have it sent.
