Letter from A.A. Thomson, Broxted, Essex, to Tinsley Pratt, 1932 July 21 : autograph manuscript signed.

Thanking him for "the Wayfaring book" and writing that he will return the other books a little later; agreeing with him that "Violet Jacob is the most notable Scots poet, or at any rate the most genuinely moving", and mentioning that he has been unable to find a copy of "Scarlet gown" by the poet (Robert F.) Murray; stating that he has found the "East Coast" less inspiring than the Lowlands or the Highlands and promising to send him a copy of his book (i.e. "The Breezy coast") ; observing that his "natural medium is the slipshod one of the novel" and that he has found travel writing to be comparatively slow and arduous.
