"Keynes tells me my book is in the best-seller lists in America."

Re Unwin's letter to The Tablet. Catholics are still more intolerant than anyone else except Communists. "The next war will be between the Vatican and the Kremlin; in spite of The Tablet, I shall side (reluctantly) with the Vatican."

Unwin kept the original letter separate from the typed copy at record 48068.

48805

BR signed the letter, but it is written in another hand. There are small errors to correct in a reprint of History. BR is moving to London on Monday.

48806

BR thanks Unwin for the "very satisfying" royalty statement. He cannot be present for the Heinemann Prize in June and is interested in all that Unwin says about reprinting the History.

48807

BR will lunch with Unwin at the Reform Club on 15 Oct.

A photocopy of the original was obtained before the original catalogued here. The photocopy is in RA3 Rec. Acq. 70.

48808

There is a Bodleian transcription of the original at record 48106.

BR thinks it better to clear the title-page of Inquiry. BR enjoyed seeing Unwin the other night. Joad has written a "very laudatory" review in Time and Tide (of Unpopular Essays).

BR points out the need to transpose "Heaven" and "Hell" on p. 192 of Unpopular Essays.

BR returns Mortimer's "pleasant" review and thanks Unwin for Waley's address.
