Mr. Henry Beston Nobleboro Maine

Dear Mr. Beston:

HERBS AND THE EARTH has arrived at the library, and to its author are due our most sincere thanks, not only for inscribing and presenting this book to the Maine Author Collection, but for writing such a valuable reference work which is at the same time such delightful reading.

This is truly an important addition to botanical literature and we have added it to the general library, where already it has proved its worth in answering reference questions, and its success with those who read for enjoyment.

The dedication is particularly significant; you are indeed fortunate in having two such careful young persons. Thank you for your kind invitation to visit your beautiful herb garden. If it is at all possible, it will be accomplished; meanwhile the anticipation of such a venture, and the fascinating HERBS AND THE EARTH will be pleasant.

Very truly yours Maine State Library

Secretary
