Mr. Norman Leys.
Brailsford, Nr. Derby,
England.
October 20, 1925.
My dear Mr. Leys:
I am afraid your publisher is spoofing you. No copy of “Kenya’ has been received by The Crisis magazine. However I have borrowed a copy from a friend and I am going to review it in a near number. I have nearly finished reading it and am greatly impressed by its importance and the hard work which you have done to gather the material. I do not know that you can hope for a very large circulation of the book in the United States, English books are so very costly. Nevertheless I will give it such publicity as I can and certainly some sales ought to result.
Very sincerely yours, | W E B du Bois [signature]
