One page, 12mo, fold mark, minor smudging, text clear and complete, good condition. In further reference to your letter of the 17th, and in particular to the last paragraph of it, the general notion seems to be that the French are not inclined to read whole books on the subject though they will read articles. I shall certainly keep the subject before the French public as much as possible. I discussed the subject with Masterman yesterday. See Image. Note: a. When Lord Beaverbrook became Minister of Information in February 1918 he appointed Bennett to take charge of propaganda in France. [Wikipedia]; b. Archibald Hurd was a naval historian, journalist, and editor.
