Mr. M. L. Fernald, 
Harvard University, 
Cambridge, Mass. 
Dear Mr. Fernald:- 
I am very sorry to have to return your man¬ 
uscript. It is the sort of book we like to have on our list. 
A few years ago we could publish more of this kind of work on 
the strength of the returns from the sales of popular inexpen¬ 
sive books, but manufacturing prices have gone up to such an 
extent and sales have come down that we can’t do it nowadays. 
Thank you for having given us the privilege of considering the 
Ms. I hope you will place it advantageously ®ith someone else. 
And if you do, I shall certainly buy a copy myself for I -want 
the book. 
Yours very truly, 
THE MACMILLAN COMPANY
