Mrs. Henry Beston Chimney Farm Nobleboro, Maine

Dear Elizabeth Coatsworth: For some time we have been watching for your new book, MAINE WAYS. During the past few years we have unfortunately become accustomed to waiting weeks and months for scheduled publication, so we were not alarmed -- just impatient. Now, having had word from Miss Stuart of her delightful visit with you, we have learned that the book really is due, and we are glad. May the Maine Author Collection anticipate an inscribed copy? We can think of no other person whom we would rather read on this subject. COUNTRY NEIGHBORHOOD was so charming that our anticipation of MAINE WAYS is especially keen. Please accept our very good wishes for its success.

Sincerely yours

In Charge of Maine Author Collection
