Handwritten letter from Richard A. May to Dennis J. Duncanson letting him know that he has yet to arrive at their first port of call, Quebec, and are not due to arrive at their destination, Montreal, until the next day. May writes of the conditions at sea, describing them as 'rough,' and tells of a mishap experienced by his wife Kitty who was thrown across the cabin due to turbulent seas.
May informs Duncanson that he has read Duncanson's book from beginning to end and writes that he has enclosed a text which he plans to use in discussing Duncanson's book with various promotional forces over the coming weeks. He also enquires whether Duncanson is acquainted with New York Times' book reviewers who might be good for book promotional purposes. Attached is Duncanson's book summary which requests feedback from May (Typed).
