BENNETT-39118-1.jpg
BENNETT (Arnold, 1867-1931, Poet and Novelist)

Fine Autograph Letter Signed in full to Haslam MILLS (1873-1930, Journalist and Author) returning " the instalment of the book on Sir Charles Macara and Manchester..." (1845-1929,1st Baronet, Cotton Spinner), he continues that he sees "no objection to the elaboration of the background of the portrait. In fact I wish that our biographers in general would work more on the lines which you have taken. Most biographies fail to provide any living background for the portraits. This answers the specific question which you put to me. I may add that in my opinion the appeal of a biography & therefore its circulation, is necessarily widened in proportion to the width of its outlook. Of course your scheme need not, and should not prevent an adequate disclosure of personal biographical detail ...", he continues about the pleasure of seeing him "again after such a long time, but why you should suppose that I should not remember you, after our days in Manchester, I cannot imagine ...", 2 sides 4to., Comarque, Thorpe-Le-Soken, 7th June

BENNETT-39155-1.jpg
BENNETT (Arnold, 1867-1931, Poet and Novelist)

Autograph Letter Signed in full to "My dear Mills" telling him that "all that this agreeable lecture wants to make it saleable is a famous signature. Without that, I doubt if you will place it in London, as it doesn't deal with people, things that Londoners know ... no-one is less known in London than the members of the 'Times' Staff. I think it is very nice, but I think also it lacks importance. Arm's Politics, it is excellent journalism and no adverse criticism can be made on it. The other thing is too slight to be criticised. If I am to animadvert, I can only say in belittlement that all this stuff has some slight lack of the excessively adroit facility of 'miscellany' ...", he ends by sending good wishes to his wife and offering to entertain them in New York, 2 sides 8vo., Hotel Californie, Cannes, 18th June faded with loss of some text, worn at folds and repaired
