Scope and content

Letter from Richard A. May to Sheldon Meyer (Editor, Trade Department, OUP: NY), in response to the latter's letter on 07 December 1967. May discusses issues surrounding OUP:NY's recent announcement to reverse their original decision and to now publish an American edition of Duncanson's book. However, May worries that as OUP: NY will publish the American edition two months after the UK edition, it would put Duncanson and his book 'at a costly and unnecessary disadvantage'.
